Their whole purpose in being Sanctuary Cities is to protect and shelter Criminals from Law Enforcement, so why are they objecting to doing it more? Just hypocrites, virtue signalling, or something else?

For one, like so many of Trump's ideas, it doesn't actually solve the problem. Not to mention it's petty and spiteful - qualities we might expect in a 5 year old, but not a US president. So, there's that.

They get more Criminals raping and killing their children, more Illegal Alien Drunk Drivers killing or maiming their families. And the reasonable folk don't need to be burdened in this way. Even though some Illegal Aliens murder multiple US Citizens, there are plenty more Illegal Aliens to replace the Democrap children, so the Democrap Voter base still increases. Win Win for everybody, right? And the Legal Immigrants, contributing to our society and communities, can locate to reasonable areas and vote for Patriotic candidates.

I personally resent my $$ going to coddle illegal aliens. Yanno - what part of illegal do people not understand?Trump’s decision to kill DACA — never mind the attempt to obscure things with that meaningless delay — is, first and foremost, a moral obscenity: throwing out 800,000 young people who are Americans in every way that matters, who have done nothing wrong, basically for racial reasons. But it’s also worth noting that Jeff Sessions just tried to sell it with junk economics, claiming that the Dreamers are taking American jobs. No, they aren’t, even if we leave aside the question of who’s an American. DACA is very much a boon to the rest of the U.S. population, and killing it will make everyone worse off. To see why, first note that whatever you think about the economics of less-educated immigrants — most of the evidence suggests that they don’t depress wages, but that’s another discussion — none of it applies to DREAMers. . . . There is no upside whatever to this cruelty, unless you just want to have fewer people with brown skin and Hispanic surnames around. Which is, of course, what this is really all about. https://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2017/09/05/the-very-bad-economics-of-killing-daca/ I checked just now: Republicans are Happy Trump ended DACA, but they're less sure about deporting DREAMers. That suggests "illegal alien" is a fluid concept with them. www.npr.org/2017/09/17/551392700/republicans-are-happy-trump-ended-daca-they-re-less-sure-about-deporting-dreamer Trump says Jump. His Supporters ask, How high? In the Trump era, Republicans have been revising their views on right and wrong. Are their moral convictions writ in stone? Apparently not. www.nytimes.com/2017/09/14/opinion/trump-republicans.html The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly
