Yes, I've read about such cities, but I'm asking how they are allowed to exist if they are harboring/protecting/aiding and abetting fugitives who have broken our laws. That seems to me to be a criminal act in doing so. Our laws should be enforced or taken off the books.
Just because it is the law does not make it right. It would seem simple to me to choose to enforce it but only when it was shoved right in your face. Lip service.
Seems to me the current idea is that the problem has gotten so huge that it's just too difficult to sort out, so we basically give lip service to enforcement and give up. This whole situation reminds me of just how ineffective our federal government has become.
Even if you chose to enforce it, think of the logistics and the expense. I think Sanctuary Cities are just dealing with reality with a splash of understanding the immoral nature of the law.
Stop them at the border but leave the good law abiding illegals already here alone.
