All of a sudden, Birmingham, Alabama becomes a Sanctuary City
Those elected officials could give a rats ass about the people from those 6 countries nor those that may take advantage of a sanctuary city. Their interests are far from those issues. Yet, because of their hatred for Trump and all that stands for, they pull a stupid ass knee jerk reaction today.
As a former citizen of that part of Alabama, I am ashamed. |

Help clarify something for me.
In a sanctuary city, a criminal is harbored/protected so they are not prosecuted because if they are prosecuted they could be deported and the sanctuary city does not want people deported. Is that accurate? So an illegal alien gets pulled over with a bag of meth. The city then let's them walk because they may be deported otherwise? An American however, gets caught with the same amount of meth, and it's the crossbar hotel. Is that the way it works or is there something I'm missing? |

The city doesn't tell the Feds they are cutting an illegal loose.

Just need to hit them hard in the funding. Current laws allow the Federal Govt to withhold up to, but not exceeding 20% . Perhaps an improved law could be passed allowing a higher percentage for cities breaking federal laws. 100% sounds fair to me. |

I suspect a lot of this posturing will die down after awhile.

As someone that is originally from Birmingham, I am ashamed.

Years ago, I worked with an Engineer who was here from Iran. Medhi and I were good friends and I asked him about all the political protests in his country. He said that it's like anything else...if you want to get involved in all that political stuff you can...or you can ignore it and go about your business.
That's how I look at this. These protests are extremely far away from my reality and they don't affect me in any way. They have nothing to do with me and I have no involvement. Especially in this state, there's so little of that going on. People here would protest more vigorously if the Cowboys traded Dak Prescott. I'm ashamed of you too. |

I believe the reckoning for Trumps Sanctuary City EO will come sooner rather than later. San Fran is already suing, and I'm betting they're not going to comply.

I'm saying they're making their legal push back against the President and he's going to break his foot off in their ass.
Then, the rest of the sanctuary cities are going to fall over themselves to get in line and hand over their illegals. |
