Murdered by the Left: Time for a campaign against “sanctuary” cities
Canada Free Press ^ | 07/08/15 | Arnoild Ahlert

Senseless and preventable act of violence owned by an ideologically bankrupt Obama administration, corrupt San Francisco officials, and everyone else who would take the side of foreign criminals over Americans.

On Monday, illegal alien Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, a 45-year-old repeat drug offender who had been deported five times, was charged with killing Kathryn Steinle, 32, at Pier 14 in the “sanctuary city” of San Francisco. The details surrounding this case are a testament to the multi-layered bankruptcy of progressive ideology.

We begin with the contemptible notion of a sanctuary city itself. Despite the passage of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Responsibility Act of 1996 requiring cities to cooperate with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE), there are literally hundreds of cities in the nation that provide safe haven for illegal aliens in open defiance of federal law. Yet, because that law conflicts with progressive sensibilities, not a single lawsuit has ever been filed by the federal government against a sanctuary city for violating it. In a revealing contrast, the Obama administration has filed suit against states such as Arizona, Alabama and South Carolina that were attempting to enforce federal immigration law. The administration claimed the states had no right to do so—despite the reality the administration itself refuses to do so.

Local control vs state control vs federal control.

Totally agree. And this doesn’t count the many other crimes we don’t know about. Hey, lawbreaking goes around, we just don’t need more that are preventable, strict border controls, kids won’t get dope and so on.

Plus, encouraging illegal immigration just helps the Coyotes and their abuse of migrants down south of the border.

Sadly, I suspect the pretty victim was probably a big leftie who supported sanctuary cities...

In the end, that to me doesn’t matter since there are so many victims. They all aren’t for Sanc Cities.

"Sanctuary city" sounds so, well, nice.

What places like San Francisco are is "illegal alien hideouts" ... much more descriptive of their true purpose.

Someone posted that on FR last night, it’s a shockingly long list. They are all over the country, many states have multiples.

Donald Trump may not be a serious candidate, but you have to hand it to him for putting the subject of the criminality of illegals on the front page right around the time this murder occurred. This morning, the local news here in the Houston area covered the story, and mentioned that Houston is a sanctuary city as well. This is the first time that the term “sanctuary city” has had a somewhat derogatory sound about it in the media.

I’m also in the Houston area and you know how often we hear of drunk drivers who kill then they mention the driver was an illegal.... I wish all of those surviving family members affected would come forward so the entire country could see how many crimes/deaths have been caused by illegals

Murdered By The Left


Truth is both parties have prevented the full implementation of the 1986 laws that were passed at the time of the last amnesty that were supposed to prevent another amnesty being needed.

Instead we find ourselves with 10 times the number of illegal aliens that were amnestied last time.

The only solution our political leaders seem to have is another amnesty.
Doing the same thing would be insane.

The stench from these sanctuary cities is fouling the air and turning America into a lawless Third World hellhole. There's more ways than one to skin these sanctuary cities. Read on, FReepers.

A muni-bond expert recently exposed city bond financing schemes as a house of cards (Chicago). Examining city bond documents uncovered taxpayers were royally rooked---and were paying billions for:

<><> greedy politicians' shady financial legerdemain,

<><> including using long-term financing to cover day-to-day expenses,

<><> using bonds to pay pension obligations, and,

<><> misappropriating returns from the interest rate swap portfolio as a free-for-all “ATM” for pols.

Bonding is eternal taxation. Insider deals bonding companies made w/ shady pols to get sanctuary city bonding business would tell a tale of greedy pols accumulating riches through massive govt corruption.

If these sanctuary city bonding deals were effectuated by way of referendum at the ballot box----and misled investors into buying tax-fee muni bonds----the SEC would be interested.

Massive govt corruption in sanctuary cities might include forgery, falsification of official records, fraudulent state budget entries, tax evasion, illegal wire-transfers, misuse of public office.

Tax-exempt municipal bond investors (including public education bond investors)-- have legal grounds to sue if they were deceived about deceptive bond offerings.

In many cases, bond issues are approved by voters---at the ballot box--so that voters may have also been misled WRT uses of fraudulent bond offerings.

Also culpable are:

<><> bonding companies underwriting possible fraudulent sanctuary city bond issues;

<><> banks holding possibly fraudulent sanctuary city bond proceeds;

<><> State/city's modus operandi in allocating tax-exempt bond proceeds,

<><> third parties accepting fraudulent sanctuary city bond proceeds.

<><> sanctuary city vendors accepting fraudulent bond proceeds.

<><> publicly-funded sanctuary city agencies advocating the uses of fraudulent bond proceeds.

===========================================

The SEC, FBI, banking overight agencies, and the IRS, would be interested in the activities of sanctuary city entities WRT bonding.

EMAIL---FBI TIPS PAGE https://tips.fbi.gov

EMAIL--enforcement@SEC.gov

Contact the IRS Fraud Unit

EMAIL Banking oversight agencies

============================================

Taxpayers should find out which sanctuary city banks are facilitating this.

<><> Which banks are designated the repositories of sanctuary city tax dollars.
<><> Which banks are dispensing sanctuary city tax-exempt bond proceeds.

==============================================

Now if sanctuary city officials and govt agencies: <><> used the US mail to perpetrate these schemes, <><> solicited funds for then diverted bond proceeds to another purpose.....the charge is mail fraud.

Sending your tax dollars to any liberal socialist “sanctuary” city is aiding and abetting criminals who refuse to enforce existing Federal immigration laws!

Start by prosecuting these criminals in every liberal socialist city in America. this will put an end to the so called sanctuary cities!

The problem now is, the socialist in the White-house and the DOJ supports the invading foreign Nationalist coming into this country (so long as they are of color) in order to change the demographics (whites) of this once great nation!

Bill O’Reilly wants Kate's law that will mandate five years in prison for returning after being deported! Why not make it a felony with a mandatory ten years in prison for entering the country illegally! Charge the offending country for the expense in housing these illegals in our prisons by taking the money from the money we send these countries every year!!!

This invasion must end now!

Fine by me, but it must be the equivalent of a Mexican prison! No Camp Cupcakes!
