I’d like to know what grounds he is using to plead not guilty.

Man, they must have a list of restaurants a mile long for CA.
Raid them with vengeance.

These greedy unscrupulous employers need to have the hood slammed on their heads but good. It’s only about 25 years too late, but better late than never.

Can they use this law against the Mayor of Los Angeles They can and should. Why should he be above the law?

Well as I see it the basic problem is that California now thinks itself a country unto itself and doesn’t need to be led around by the other 49 and DC. Open rebellion appears to be the featured special this month.

He probably has a gaggle of high priced pro-bono open border lawyers who will obfuscate the case for as long as possible to tie up the court system. The judge will most likely be dumbfounded by their legal stature and let them make a circus of his courtroom. The solution is to bring so many simultaneous cases, that the pool of immigration-activist lawyers can't keep up, and most defendants would have to make do with public defenders.

The SC found that Arizona could not enforce immigration laws because the Obama administration did not want them to. It is time for Trump to tell states that he wants them to enforce federal law. Arizona and Texas can then make it illegal to be illegal in their states. Self deportation will begin immediately.

A guy who runs a restaurant called “Refugio” is accused of harboring refugees? The defense attorney is going to have hands full on this one.

I read somewhere last week that it was a couple million people in the LA area that were there illegally. Definitely a problem with harboring illegal aliens. Trump should put a bounty on them $100 each round them up alive unharmed.

A .22 rifle and a 410 shotgun. Guy said he used the shotgun for hunting, probably true (no sarcasm.).

We need about 100 prosecutions like this in each state for a start. Then we can afford to go after the small number still stupid enough not to get rid of their illegals.

Correct Pollster1, but are there enough ICEMEN to pull it off? I recall seeing that ICE was going to hire another 10,000 agents but getiing that done and getting them trained will take quite some time.

What a coincidence, I had a .22 Bolt Action Rifle and .410 Shotgun when I was eight years old.
Kept them in my Bedroom Closet. In today’s America, my Parents would have been arrested for Child Endangerment.
We didn’t have any Illegal Invaders living in our Basement though.

They have way more lawyers than anyone else including overworked prosecutors. IMHO, the solution is for judges to get a spine, clamp down on their courtroom theatrics, cite them for contempt of court and rule quickly against them. I don't know how we can get judges like that. Maybe a special training course?

With a name like that, I’m surprised it took them so long.

Correct but its not pronounced: (pron. Re-fury-o)
- more like Ray-Foo-EE-YO - plus you can trill the "R" to sound mas autentico ... pretty sure that's a word but there's no "fury" in Refugio ... ;-)
