For what it’s worth I support blocking sanctuary cities. If it means keeping our streets safe. Can’t believe anyone with good sense would oppose this. Oh that’s right MV official are in support of blocking ICE.
Sounds like ICE is the criminal here.

Sheriff Smith is engaged in doubletalk. Maybe it is time for her to leave office. Others are running against her.

I don't understand this. One law enforcement agency is refusing to cooperate with another? Isn't that what people say in part caused the 9/11 attacks? One agency not cooperating/sharing info with another. They have a "good relationship with the immigrant community" - my foot! They are protecting illegal aliens and everybody knows it. Why? Do they have to wait until some illegal scum bag kills their child to realize that harboring and protecting these people endangers us all? Then they brag about it!! Has our society really come to this? Don't people realize the danger that this places our families and friends in? The immigrant families that I know who came here legally do not support this. They are as against illegal entry into our country as anyone else. Either we are a country of laws or we are not and there is no excuse for harboring and shielding these people from law enforcement whose job it is to get them out of here where they don't belong. Hint: they are in jail; they are not sweethearts; they are criminals. Why do you want them here? I would love to hear a reporter ask them to answer that question.
