Have you seen the new State State Insurance “Like a Good Neighbor State Farm is there!” The new one with LeBron James. At the end of the commercial James sings that tune and says “with a tiny violin.” Then he begins to play said violin. Now, . . . . visualize.

Ya ya my boo boo State Farm instead of State State, but you knew what I meant since you seemed to know everything else around.

I don't have to deal with it. If you are from Kalifornistan, then you voted for it. You got it. If you don't like it, move. You are NEVER going to get the state back. It is too far down said toilet now to come back. You could raise the Titanic easier than bail out Kaliforniastan.

Sorry pal. I don’t drink. I don’t use drugs. I don’t like liberals. Since you are from one of the most liberal states in the union and is dragging this nation deeper down, go talk to someone that gives a tinker. I don’t. End of conversation. You are not worth the sweat. Go back to DU. You are better suited there with the whining.

WHAT exactly is it that you keep insisting we voted for? To have a separate nation of Mexican nationals colonize California and solidify political, police, economic, and cultural control over entire cities?

I didn’t vote for that. I don’t know anyone who did. I don’t even remember that election. This catastrophe was done TO us.

Do you also blame Hawaii for Pearl Harbor? New York for 9/11?

You just don’t know what to do about it. Or you’re lazy. Or both.

Whether the situation can be turned around is a separate argument. Actually, it’s not. All the states are responsible for the utter abrogation of America’s Southern border. Only all the states working together can fix it.

Instead of the silly ideas I usually see here, certain states are finally learning to fight smart.

You don’t need to do anything gestapo-esqe. Just get between the illegals and what they need. Like AZ pull the licenses of business that knowingly hire illegals.

Like AL pull the rental licenses of landlords who rent to illegals. FINALLY someone did that.

Like AL check the ID’s of secondary school students.

Make it a criminal offense to harbor or transport illegals.

Station cops at the entrances to courthouses and county social welfare centers simply refusing to admit anyone without proper ID.

Do the same at emergency rooms (let emergency patients get treated) then deport them when they are no longer in emergency status).

AZ and AL have led the way and pried the door of opportunity open, don’t tell me CA can’t step through.

Kali has made a conscious decision to be a sanctuary state. What the hell are they crying about?

I think that you should qualify that statement a bit.

Cali politicians have made the sanctuary state against the wishes of the citizens.
In addition by doing so they have made the citizens pay higher taxes to support the sanctuary of illegal aliens.

I ma not a Cali citizen but I live in a state that also has sanctuary cities.

Against my wishes also, suborning the laws of civilization by politicians is abhorrent. Problem is that both sides rinos and demos support, thinking they are garnering votes.

In reality they are only tearing the fabricate of civilized society apart for momentary political power or re-election.

Arizona’s measures (exactly like California’s that were nullified twenty years ago) are tied up in court. They are NOT being enforced. The Feds have prohibited it.

Alabama is about to be dragged into court by the ACLU. Their measures will be thrown out, just like AZ’s and CA’s were.

No state has successfully enacted any of these measures yet.

Everything you just suggested California has tried. We have been enjoined by the Federal government from doing any of it.

Got anymore ideas?

“Put them on a chain gang and have them pick vegetables and the other jobs Americans don’t want to do. Let them pay for themselves.”

I think this should be done with all prisoners, but it seems the Federal Employees in black robes have issued their “supreme edicts” to the contrary.

As it is all theses Dictators will let us do is offer them the chance to work.

I say we ignore the Federal Employees in black robes and do it anyway. If at some point down the line our 9 “supreme dictators of the Federal Constitution” should decide it does not fancy them that we are doing this we can tell em what we told King George.

“In California, Democrat Congressman Jim Costa said that “California cannot and should not have to shoulder this burden alone,” according to Bakersfield Now. He called upon the federal government to fully fund the State Criminal Alien Assistance Program to help reimburse the costs of detaining illegal immigrants who have committed crimes.”

Uh, I don’t think so. California cities want to declare themselves to be “sanctuary cities.” Let the elites in San Francisco support the cost of housing illegals - they want them so badly. (Most likely for the cheap labor) Yet, they want the nation to fund the cost incurred as a result of the crimes committed by illegals. Sorry, California - you should reap what you sow. We don’t want them in our states and we shouldn’t have to pay for them when they become a burden in yours.

I guarantee you, whatever state/city you live in — if your police arrests someone for being in the country illegally, ICE will turn them loose.

That policy is exactly the same as those of “sanctuary cities.” Your city just isn’t ADVERTISING itself as such.

Every city in America is a sanctuary city, because IT’S THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY TO POLICE THE BORDER. IT’S THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY DEPORT ILLEGAL ALIENS. And they’ve utterly abrogated that responsibility. And they won’t let cities and states do it.

This is not on California; this is on YOUR House of Representatives. YOUR Senate. YOUR Federal Immigration Bureaucracy: EPIC FAIL.

If you say your city/state has a different policy — that you’re regularly turning aliens over to ICE and they’re subsequently deported — I’m calling you a liar.

Call me a liar all you want - my city has NOT openly declared itself a sanctuary city.

Are your police checking immigration status of detainees, turning them over to ICE if they’re here illegally, and following up to make sure they’re deported?

Thanksnodidn’tthinkso.

You’re a sanctuary city if your city is anywhere in the United States. It doesn’t matter what you “declare” yourself.

Got an idea.

When you arrest an illegal, stick a chip in him and tell him to go home.

If an illegal WITH a chip is arrested, any crime he commits automatically a felony, and any felony is aggravated. For example, manslaughter becomes murder, murder becomes capital murder, etc.
