Judicial Watch has a post up about self-described sanctuary cities in the USA that habitually release illegal alien who commit crimes while in the United States. This pointless excercise of revolving door justice for criminals continues for up to six times in these municipalities according to Judicial Watch.

From the article: In numerous cases, county and city law enforcement agencies released offenders with existing criminal histories—including serious weapons and drug charges—who had been previously arrested without notifying the Department of Homeland Security to begin deportation proceedings.

The list of cities mentioned includes the usual liberal-town suspects. Notice the brand of liberalism we see paraded today which portrays itself as the fulfillment of enlightenment and tolerance always leaves a bad stench in its wake. That's because it offers a false justice and a false mercy that is based on nothing more than the fashions of the day. It is a cheap imitation of what true justice and mercy are all about and based on nothing more than shifting sand and the foolish notions of mere men trying to be gods.

But even further than the insufferable primping and posturing of self-serving politicians crowing about their "convictions" regarding the poor notice that these same cities are bastions of the Democratic party. The so-called party of the little guy and the "oppressed" masses. This is pure political theatre played for the press. I submit that the real reason these politicians refuse to cooperate with Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) is that their party bosses and fat cat contributors TELL THEM NOT TO enforce these laws when they come across illegal aliens. These bosses and fat cats would rather have the low cost labor illegal aliens bring so they can work on their construction projects, manicure the lawn around their homes and country clubs, pick their fruits and vegetables and bring them their coffee and paper in the morning. So what, they reason if some of the illegals commit crimes and destroy the quality of life around THEIR neighborhoods, I want the cheap labor so I don't have to pay out all that money in social security and other federal taxes that it would cost me to employ legal American citizens to do my work for me. This entire farce will continue as long as the Federal Government pays out money to these cities to enforce immigration laws which they have no intention of ever enforcing on the local level. The local politicos have no motivation to comply with Federal Law since the source of their funding is never threatened. The end result is that crime goes up in these communities while the politicians keep seeing their coffers enriched.

If you have people at the Federal level who will stop funding and subsidies for these wayward cities because of their non-enforcement of Federal Law then you will see a sudden interest at the local level for the apprehension, detention, prosecution and deportation of criminal illegal aliens in these same cities. Without that the local politicians have the best of both worlds, good press and no accountability to anyone.
