“Support Israel and stop playing footsie with the blasted “palestinians”.”

palestinians = Phillistinians. They HAVE a country - Jordan and they should go there - or someplace a lot hotter and take their Islamic brothers with them.

I also like their views on the Second Amendment and agree with Hunter about the one-sided trade deals especially with our good “friends” the Red Chinese who are using our export dollars to build a major war machine aimed at US.

BRAVO! My sentiments exactly!

If the Feds were following the law and doing their jobs, states wouldn't think they have to craft their own immigration laws.

A federal judge cast the bright light of reality into the immigration issue when he ruled that cities have no place deciding who is legal or illegal. The ruling found Hazleton, Pa ordinances unconstitutional..... and came as a reminder that the job of writing immigration law can't be usurped by local government.

Balderdash.

The founding fathers were very, very clear. The federal government should be the weakest part of our government. The local government should be the strongest because the closer you get to the people, the more it is in connection with the people and its will .....That's why you're seeing communities like Hazelton stepping in........

The US rule of law is central to our survival as a democracy........what distingushes the US from the hellholes of the world.

Illegals are underming our democracy.

Their contempt for our laws is a danger to our Nation.

Illegal invaders obviously feel comfortable in the US only by degrading the US into a Third World banana republic——--into one of those South and Central American hellholes from which they emanate

I love how this illegal-loving piece of s**t refers to the invading hordes as "new neighbors".

Neighbors? NEIGHBORS?? What kind of "neighbors" cram 15 people into a 2-bedroom apartment, blast their circus-music at all hours, are openly hostile to the people who have spent their lives here, and disregard the laws the rest of us have to live by???

So, when American troops are sent to stop a genocide, the natives call us "invaders", but when it's our land being invaded, we natives are branded as "racists" and "xenophobic". (bitter, ironic laughter)

The author's last name is "Jiminez". Go figure.

I would hope the town officials take the same approach as President Andrew Jackson: "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it."

Furthermore, the town should cease all co-operation with the federal government in regards to law enforcement.

Minimum wage? Sorry, that's a federal thing.
OSHA violations? Sorry, feds only.
A kidnapping you say? Sorry, judge James Munley says we can't help.

It is kinda silly. The federal government reserves the right to set immigration policy, but won’t enforce its’ own laws. But they chastise local governments who are trying to handle the problem.

As a practical matter, just how does the federal government enforce this, since they seem disinclined to enforce much of anything these days. In other words, “so what?”
