Trump Deportation Directives Fueling “La Raza” Revolt in L.A.

[Michie]

For two days in a row, people demonstrating without a permit shut down Los Angeles freeways and assaulted police officers in protest of President Trump’s deportation directives, and for two days Mayor Karen Bass publicly ignored the situation and forbade officers to halt the unrest.



Jen Van Laar, the Managing Editor of Red State, reports:



“For the second day in a row, people protesting without a permit have shut down Los Angeles roadways and assaulted police officers, and for the second day in a row Mayor Karen Bass has publicly ignored the situation and privately told officers to stand down and retreat.”



The "La Raza" rebel blockage of LA’s freeways on Feb. 3 was an utter disgrace. What we're seeing is a growing number of illegals, citizens, and educators advocating the illegal breach of our borders, which is criminal. An executive order should be passed that would enable local police to answer directly to the president should corrupt mayors and governors forbid them from halting civil violence during times of crisis.

You want them to turn themselves in? The Catholic Church has condemned Trump's actions, and my parish is hosting workshops led by immigration lawyers helping immigrants protect themselves.
They are terrified. His actions are immoral. Of course they are angry (and if the news came from a conservative site it is probably exaggerated.)

Immigrants have nothing to be terrified about unless they are criminals.

Immigrants have nothing to be terrified about unless they are criminals.

...and, if they entered the country illegally, they are criminals

By definition, yes. But I’m talking about the violent ones with long criminal histories.

I am grateful to the Catholic Church for seeing clearly that someone with the current president's track record for lies (I count about one every 30 seconds in his speeches) is probably trying to soft pedal his intentions.
The "Good Shepherd" is trying to keep his sheep safe. Do not tell them otherwisem

Is the Catholic Church shielding illegal immigrants convicted or arrested of crimes and criminal behavior? Do you really and actually believe that this is something our Savior would have done or endorsed?

It depends on whether you define "crime" as being in the US or real "crimes."
Trump's deporting of bona-fide refugees with temporary protective status proves he has his sights set on as many immigrants as he can.
Those with temporary protected status are legal, with back stories that would move the heart of the Sphinx...but obviously not Trump.

Yet, somehow, it seems to me that liberals like yourself are also worrying about the illegal immigrants who have been arrested, indicted, and sentenced for criminal behavior but sanctuary states and sanctuary cities refuse to allow to be deported.

No. I don't believe that cities are protecting felons. For years NYC has said it will not bother immigrants who came here to work hard and contribute to our society. NYC is a city of immigrants--just drive through Queens and see all of the ethnicities and cultures reflected there.

They can't arrest everybody, so they arrest the criminals, and the stats I've seen show that violent crime has decreased in most cities.

I don't believe anything I am unfortunate enough to be exposed to on Fox News (it's in my nail salon, ugh). Their stock in trade is sensationalizing things to drive fear, prejudice and racism into the hearts of their viewers. Doesn't work on me, I'm not their viewer.
