Okay, you seem to be backing away from asserting the cities are breaking laws. If not, produce the law being broken.

Funny how quickly conservatives cottoned to the concept of Big Government.
Conservatives have always affirmed in the necessity of obeying and following the laws.

Of course and I would expect nothing less from this petty, authoritarian regime who wants everyone to bend oover and comply with their demands. As we see with Boston, sanctuary cities are standing up to this federal bully.
If city laws override federal laws, then we might as well not have any federal laws. By the way, what's wrong with turning over criminal illegal immigrants to ICE? Why do liberals appear to be on the same side as criminals?

They are not overriding federal laws, they just aren't doing the immigration authority's jobs for them.

Hey are actively participating in the allowance of the breaking of federal immigration law by harboring illegals. In fact they invite them.

They don’t override federal laws. They are state and city laws meant to govern state and city officials.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it in theory.

I just think my local PD has more pressing issues and more relevant crimes to deal with than to be committing time, resources and manpower to enforce federal laws. First, that’s not their jurisdiction and second, with the ridiculously huge boost in funding now available to ICE there’s even less reason for local authorities to spare any extra resources to them.

We want criminals to face justice and receive punishment. Not escape justice. That said, if ICE has a judicial warrant, they will be honored by local police.

They were bussed there by Texas, too, or did we forget that? I think the claim was “now they’re your problem, and Boston accepted them.

I've seen the opposite of that happening in blue cities and blue sanctuary cities.

Nonsense, you've been crowing about local police in sanctuary cities apprehending aliens who commit crimes.

Writing a city law that says (in effect) that city funds cannot be used to enforce Federal Immigration Law, would be a valid law.
