    I don't know the Koch brothers, but I did notice you haven't listed any republican sanctuary cities in my first question to you?

    The law needs to be enforced, period

    Oh, I agree, I think Mexico also just shoots them when they cross, which would be fine with me

    This Sanctuary City debate is so overplayed that it's becoming sad and comical at the same time. You are focusing on the wrong thing, just as our politicians want you to do.

    Simple solution folks, create a NEW law that penalizes the (*)(*)(*)(*) out of those knowingly hiring illegals. 10-15 years minimum with a massive fine. A fine large enough that it could potentially hurt their business bad enough to potentially lose it.

    And end the biggest failure we have ever seen............the war on drugs. Violent crimes committed by illegals will drop dramatically once the war on drugs failure ends.

    I looked and didn't find any. But that doesn't explain why the Koch's have blackballed trump

    Quit copping out...you know good and damn well that no sanctuary city will follow this law, only an idiot would think this would work, it being a crime to hire them will not stop them from coming!

    So you think a big ass wall will??

    Do you think these Children are coming here to rape and murder and commit violent crimes?

    That's the problem with your type, you KNOW that the current law is crap yet you want nothing done to fix it. You just complain that it's all garbage yet you offer NO solution.

    Tell me, what did your idol Reagan do about it during his term?

    Where did I say anything about a wall,genius?

    What do you think these children are coming here for? You know good and damn well what they are coming here for, you just won't admit it because you don't care!

    There is a solution...it's called following the law and deport these people when you catch them instead of releasing them back into the public.

    And if you want to fine people then how about fining the cities who offer them sanctuary?

    Novel concept,huh?

    I don't give a damn what Reagan did about it...he hasn't been in politics in over 25 yrs., not to mention he's dead if you haven't noticed!:roll:

    I have no problem fining those cities as well. But the current law is NOT enough. Never has been, never will.

    End the war on drugs & watch violent crimes from illegals drop a ton.

    End the minor penalties for businesses hiring these illegals, and watch the flow of illegals coming in slow down.

    Deporting them over and over and over and over again while refusing to make the law better solves NOTHING.

    Bernie is right and is smoking nothing. The right wing (Reagan, both Bushies, McCain and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce) threw the borders open as a means to suppress wages and bury the unions. And Republicans LOVED the idea. As my dear old granny used to tell me, you reap what you sew. Live with it.

    Wow, you have no idea, and now you are guessing. The fact that I pointed to everyone of these cities that protect lawbreakers are liberal, you would rather divert to your liberal guessing. Mmmmmm K :roflol:

    Maybe you would like to answer why Obama doesn't go after businesses employing illegals? Isn't that what the government is suppose to do, enforce our laws?

    Actually, the law that Georgia passed a few years ago was very effective.

    There is allegedly one. The point is holding employers accountable is very effective in reducing illegal/undocumented workers. Should there be a federal version of the law, the federal government, as many conservatives have pointed out on other issues, have their ways of ensuring compliance.
