Or at least a massive boycott campaign led by progressive organizations and city governments.... right?
Patches is on it, no doubt...
Why isn't Obama and Holder going after Rhode Island? That's easy, they vote Democrat.
I think the whole open borders crowd is going to regret the day they filed this lawsuit. They're going to lose. They're going to set a precedent on this. They're outraging millions and millions of ordinary Americans. They're inspiring even the most spineless elected Republicans (not Lindsey Grahamnesty, who has a negative spine or less than a zero amount of spine) to stand up and fight the illegal invaders and their supporters.
Jan Brewer? Jan Brewer sure is doing a heck of a John Wayne impersonation. Who'd a thunk it?
Oh, oh...Here comes the Vegetarian-HuffPo-blogger-doubling-as-Attorney-General lawsuit.
This has been going on in RI for two years now...
That’s going to leave a mark. LOL
I do hope Rhode Island files an amicus brief supporting the state of Arizona.
anazing article for the Globe..and the word “embrace” in the headline....wow..
So Rhode Island State troopers report illegal immigrants to ICE.....
How many of these illegals get deported? My bet is one or two. ICE is doing nothing in interior enforcement. Deporting to Guatemala is a logistical hassle because they have to be flown there. With Mexicans you can bus them to the border and kick them out to the Mexican side
Plus in all of Rhode Island I’ll bet the State Troopers are the only ones reporting illegals to ICE. In Arizona nearly all police will be reporting illegals to ICE and physically delivering these illegals to ICE
Holder is destroying the AG’s office.
Remember the bogus Hutaree charges? http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2482249/posts
The New Black Panther dismissal.
The frivolous Arizona lawsuit.
Sinister forces are at work.
So do the Rhode Island cops immediately arrest illegals and throw them in jail? If not, who are they “turning over” to ice?
Yes, they actually do, as do all police when they ask for wants and warrants on a person who they've detained. Those checks include federal wants and warrants. If the IRS has obtained an arrest warrant for tax evasion on the Porsche driver, that warrant would in NCIC system, and the state police officer would arrest the driver on that outstanding warrant, and he would be held in county lockup until such a time that the federal authorities came to collect him.
It happens every hour of every day in cities all across the country. In fact, Canada participates in our NCIC system, and their wants & warrants would also be given to the officer who's asking.
What I’d like to know is this — how does Rhode Island compare with the rest of the other states/counties in terms of the IMPACT on their economy from illegals ?
Do they for instance, have a smaller number of illegals as a percentage of their state population as other states in the North East because of this policy in place ?
The answer to this question will give us an indicator of how effective policies like the one put in place in Arizona will be.
If the Feds cared about usurpation of federal authority, they would have filed lawsuits against the sanctuary cities; their laws are DIRECTLY opposite to federal law. By ignoring those laws, wasn’t some sort of legal precedent set? Something like squatters’ rights? (If I openly squat on someone else’s land for seven years and they do nothing, it’s mine by law.)
This is little Patty Kennedy’s state. They’re all idiots to elect him therefore they’ll be left alone by obama.
I’ll repeat myself when I say I’d like to be a congressman for one day so I could slap “pattycake’s” face.
Ping!
