Steyn Battles Sanctuary City advocate

FOX News: On “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Mark Steyn debated an immigrant advocate over San Francisco’s plan to fund $7 million worth of lawyers and other resources to help illegal immigrants fight deportation.

Steyn said Monday also marked the day President Trump’s sunset of the DACA program was to take effect, adding that it was instead neutered by “activist judges.”

National Immigration Forum executive director Ali Noorani said forcing local law enforcement to enforce federal immigration law leads to distrust among the immigrant community writ large.

He said that is true whether it is “San Francisco, St. Louis, or Spartanburg [S.C.].”

Noorani told Steyn police want to be “policing a safe city” and not a “sanctuary city.”

Steyn took issue with the notion, saying half of the 230 people detained by ICE in California recently were convicted of serious crimes.  read more

  1. People who do not value American citizenship don’t might giving away something they view as being of low value. And those given citizenship at zero cost to themselves also view American citizenship as being of low value.

    The rest of us view American citizenship as something of great value and don’t want it given away to anyone. The immigrants we may want in the country we want them to work for it so they will value it highly also.
