(CBS SF) The Alameda County Sheriffs Office will no longer honor requests by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to hold suspected undocumented immigrants in jail who would otherwise be eligible for release, joining a growing wave of backlash against the controversial policy.
In a memo Wednesday, sheriffs Capt. Colby Staysa ordered that any inmates held in Alameda County jails who were not being otherwise held for further criminal proceedings be immediately released, and to no longer accept immigration detainer requests from ICE.

Isn’t usually the other way around? The feds demanding that Illegal Aliens be released?
Illegals should be deported as soon as found.
When the adults get back in charge these municipalities should be informed that federal funds will no longer be forthcoming. Also, people harmed by the released illegals should be able to sue the towns in federal court.
Why do I have to obey the law?
Oh right - because I’m white.
They are simply trying to outdo each other in harming the people who they are supposed to protect.
And that Marine in jail in Mexico????
2 Section 642(b) of IIRIRA further provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of federal, state or local law, no person or agency may prohibit, or in any way restrict, a Federal, State, or local government entity from sending information about an individuals immigration status, lawful or unlawful, to the INS, from maintaining such information, or from exchanging such information with any other federal, state, or local government entity. See 8 U.S.C. 1373(b) (Supp. III 1997).

That’s a racist law that should be ignored.

The insanity continues.
And if Captain Colby Staysa gets hit by an illegal alien drunk driver when he is off duty, see if the needle on my “give a crap” meter moves at all.
Great idea. Handcuff them to the handrail of a nearby Federal building and call the U.S. Marshall service. That way there’s no discussion whether releasing them is “aiding and abetting” an illegal alien as defined in the Federal Code.
Take ‘em out back and shoot ‘em?
