Nice!
Its Happening!
Q lives!
I spoke this at our last City Council meeting:
March 21, 2018
Sanctuary Cities
Hi my name is I have been a resident of the City of for 50+ years.
On July 1, 2015, 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle, while walking with her father and a friend along Pier 14 in the Embarcadero district of San Francisco, was shot by Jose Inez Garcia Zarate. He initially claimed that he fired at a sea lion, then he changed his story and claimed that he fired accidentally while picking up the gun which he claimed he had found moments before, wrapped in cloth beneath the bench on which he was sitting. The shot ricocheted off the concrete deck of the pier striking the victim in the back. Steinle died two hours later in a hospital as a result of her injuries.
The gun used by Zarate had been stolen in downtown San Francisco from a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ranger's personal vehicle on June 27, 2015, according to the Bureau of Land Management.
The federal government filed suit against the state of California on March 6 of this year concerning its illegal activities concerning illegal immigrants.
Laws that went into affect in California on January 1st of this year include:
SB 54, prohibits state and local officials from sharing information with immigration authorities under certain circumstances and also bars transfers of certain immigrants to federal custody. The suit argues that this law is not only unconstitutional, but also violates a specific federal statute on such information sharing.
Another of the state’s measures, AB 450, forbids private employers from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement at the workplace.
The third law, AB 103, seeks to regulate contract detention facilities used to hold federal immigration prisoners.
The City council of Los Alamitos in southern California has voted to continue to abide by federal law, which supercedes state law. A quote from the LA Times today: Tonight Orange County supervisors may consider whether to take up a resolution to condemn and possibly take legal action against the state's "sanctuary" laws. Many other cities are following suit and declaring the state law unconstitutional.
Taken from the Immigration & Customs Enforcement website,
the Fiscal Year 2017 ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Report
In FY2017, ICE conducted 143,470 overall administrative arrests, which is the highest number of administrative arrests over the past three fiscal years. Of these arrests, 92 percent had a criminal conviction, a pending criminal charge, were an ICE fugitive or were processed with a reinstated final order.
ICE is not going into neighborhoods yanking law abiding illegal immigrants out of their homes they are arresting know criminal illegal aliens. In their report they are focused on those illegal immigrants that choose to live the outlaw life.
According to an article in the LA Times dated NOV 30, 2017 Zarate had been deported 5 times prior to the shooting, before returning to San Francisco, a sanctuary city.
Our state government is out of control. In seeking to be seen as being on the moral high ground, our state government officials are breaking federal law, allowing felonious illegal aliens in the state and even warning them when ICE raids are imminent. I am not not anti-immigrant, I am pro lawful immigration. I am not a racist, the label that people get if they say they choose to uphold federal law concerning lawful immigration. My wife and I adopted two drug exposed hispanic children at birth and have raised them to be fine adults, does that sound like the actions of a racist?
Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, 45, who had been deported five times, was acquitted in the killing of Kathryn Steinle. Not guilty of any charges related to the death of Kathryn Steinle.
There is a disease that has spread across our country and around the world. It is political correctness. It is ruining our country. I call on the City Council to exercise its right to abstain from the unconstitutional laws passed by our state and to abide by federal immigration laws, and to encourage the Exeter Police Department to extend full co-operation to ICE officials if called on for assistance.
One final comment: Several weeks before Steinle was killed, Garcia Zarate was released from a San Francisco jail — despite a federal request to detain him for a sixth deportation. In all likelihood Kathryn Steinle would be alive but for the immoral, reckless actions of the City of San Francisco.
Thank you for allowing me to speak from my heart.
