Video of Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel speaking to supporters just shown on Fox. He believes that Chicago illegals are "citizens" and thus cannot be prosecuted for their immigration status. "I want to welcome you (illegals) to the city of Chicago," says Emanuel on the tape.

Thus sprach Tiny Dancer.

Still covering for Obama.....

[EEGator]

Laws are so 20th century...

If you are here illegally then you are not a citizen.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

I'm all for good citizens to come here legally as long as they aren't looking for a place on the public teat. But people coming here illegally and committing crimes and sponging off public assistance is not being a “good citizen”.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

So is Chicago a sanctuary city?

Aren’t they cash strapped enough without getting more welfare hangers on and criminals added to their mix?

The ballerina needs to be more concerned with his city turning into an American version of Baghdad.

If I’m a good citizen, why can’t I legally carry a gun?

[Psycho_Bunny]

And if your actions are illegal, you’re not “good”.

Well, one day - maybe not so far in the future, people like Lil Tutu here will come to rue the day they spoke this tripe.

Besides the patently grossly illegal nature of their acts, illegals bring with them all the other societal trappings of a third world shithole: disease (some really nasty ones and some of the ones we’d eradicated here decades ago), crime, drunkeness, dependence, unchecked increase in their numbers, identity theft, theft of goverment services, and on and on and on and on.

There is nothing good about them at all - What does Lil Tutu think they’re gonna do when everyone deserts his damned city? The blacks and illegals will gut him like a pig when he don’t pay out.

Chicago puts it’s welfare folks on the overnight bus to St. Paul.

The St. Paul bus station is two blocks from the MN welfare office.

By his definition, the 9/11 terrorists would be considered "good citizens," since they weren't on anybody's radar until they hijacked planes and killed thousands of people.

What a dumb a$$. He must have his tutu on too tight.

[Vaduz]

Felons protecting felons.

Helloooo...If a person is here illegally then he/she IS NOT “a good citizen.” He/she is a law breaker in the country said person chose to steal from.

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

We have a history of electing mayors who don’t make any sense.

[DuncanWaring]

By “good citizen” he means “votes Democrat”.

[CodeToad]

“If you’re a good Democrat voter, it doesn’t matter if you are here illegally”

Fixed it.

[TPOOH]

Ergo.......if you’re a good philanthropist it doesn’t matter where you stole your money. I like it.
