LeonDurham saysOnce again-that's a strawman. Anytime you tell us what Dems believe, it's ALWAYS a strawman.
The idea behind Sanctuary cities is to make immigration enforcement difficult.
Frankly, it's insulting to people's intelligence to act like Sanctuary City policies aren't put in place to make immigration enforcement difficult.
It is always a strawman. Most sanctuary city policies (there are a few outliers. are to make local law enforcement easier by engendering trust between illegals and local law enforcement. If that makes federal immigration enforcement more difficult then that is not the local officials problem.
FortWayne saysNo they don’t. They are all cash and food stamps here.
I live here, I see it.
They pay for gas with food stamps? Amazing. Rent too?

Dems back illegal immigration and oppose any restrictions on it
Straw Man. However, teachers are notoriously dedicated democrat voters and Teachers Unions are rabid funders of Democrats.
Complete BS. That is a 100% lie. It's patently absurd. Once again I'm reminded that the next election is about truth vs. fiction. Lies vs. honesty.
I don't think you know what a strawman is. The point is that more teaching jobs doesn't create more Dems. Having babies creates Dems. More teachers just means there are jobs for those babies.
They pay for gas with food stamps? Amazing. Rent too?
You realize that trading Food Stamps for smokes and booze is quite common, yes?
"Hey Mister, If you buy me a 40, I'll buy ya $10 of stuff on my Oregon Trail Card. Whatta deal, Mister, c'mon."
100% True.
eachers don't overwhelmingly vote Democrat? Teachers Unions don't disproportionally give to Democrats? This is an extraordinary claim, please provide some evidence.
Tens of millions of Great Americans are taking a big fat dump on Trumps face with his ridiculous drug laws
Nonsense. They're there to keep illegals in the country. When Brown lowered the maximum penalty for misdemeanors from 365 to 364 days, that was a deliberate attempt to avoid triggering a Federal automatic deportation statute (anybody who serves a year in jail for a crime).
The whole "cooperate with local law enforcement" is a red herring excuse.

You realize that nobody is trading food stamps for rent or gas, right?

As opposed to reinterpreting everything within the context of race/gender/sexual orientation all muslims are terrorists, all mexicans are rapists, all blacks are on welfare, women belong int the kitchen or bedroom serving their man fags are all molesting boys?

You also realize it's possible for the mother and kids to be on welfare, but the father who lives with them to be an undeclared co-habitant who works off the books for cash-only, yes?
Because you say so? It's true because I believe it should be true. Illegals could be all gone in la very short time. All that has to happen is to direct the Justice department to prosecute employers until no one will hire an illegal. But those libruls in the oval office and controlling both houses of congress don't seem to want to take that step. There is only one group keeping illegals in the country. Conservative who block every attempt to eliminate the jobs they are here for.

What does this have to do with illegals not being able to collect most forms of welfare? And that the little they do collect is mostly from local and State sources, where they DO pay taxes.
How does a man working off the books pay taxes on cash off the books?

Tyranny is the deliberate removal of nuance.
Right, but I'm supposed to true that Democrats aren't pandering to illegals by not reporting them to ICE, attempting to legalize their citizenship, and letting them vote in local elections.
Not just that, the father and mother may not even "legally" marry but live together, so the mother gets more benefits, or even both can claim benefits as separate entities.
I already told you. Sales tax. Property tax. Gas tax. Pretty much all local taxes and a lot of state taxes. You know, the ones that actually pay for his limited amount of welfare.
How does a day laborer pay taxes on cash off the books?
I suppose it's true republicans aren't pandering to illegals by ignoring obviously bogus documentation to illegally give them poor paying jobs and driving the wages down for poor Americans. If there were no jobs there would be no one here to report to ICE or vote in local elections.
The discrimination is that it's illegal for them to be here in the first place.
If you want to have open borders, campaign for it honestly and win elections.
Don't do it by stealth which undermines democracy.
That makes very little sense. Giving them jobs so they pour across the border undermines democracy.
Maybe you should just give up and admit the illegals are here because businesses give them jobs and keep them here by contributing massive amounts of money, almost all to the republican party, to make sure that no politician will derail the money train.
I really don't consider not giving a fuck about something as "in favor".
Which San Francisco Mayor warned illegals?
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Federal immigration agents arrested more than 150 people in California in the days after Oakland’s mayor gave early warning of the raids, it was announced Tuesday.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials announced that agents made the arrests in a three-day sweep starting Sunday that covered cities from Sacramento in the north to Stockton in the Central Valley. About half of those arrested for being in the country illegally had criminal convictions, the agency said.
On Saturday, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf warned residents that “credible sources” had told her a sweep was imminent, calling it her “duty and moral obligation” to warn families.
The warning “was meant to give all residents time to learn their rights and know their legal options,” she said in a statement Tuesday night reported in the San Francisco Chronicle.
California lawmakers from Gov. Jerry Brown down to local mayors have resisted a Trump administration immigration crackdown that they contend is arbitrarily hauling in otherwise law-abiding people and splitting up families that include U.S.-born children.
The Democrats not only don't want to do anything, the only thing they want to do is have amnesty WITHOUT controlling the border or increasing enforcement.
Then great! It's time for California to cancel all taxes but the sales tax, since it pays for Everything!
and keep them here by contributing massive amounts of money, almost all to the republican party, to make sure that no politician will derail the money train.
Could you point to any Dem saying they don't want to control the border? Any?
So, I list 3 taxes and you pretend I only listed one? Dishonest much?
Property tax isn't paid by renters. The Sales Tax and Gas Tax alone pay for ALL the services illegals use? Great! You can halt the income tax on all incomes under $100k!
Illegals don't use very many services.
While I agree that, in abstract, renters don't pay property taxes--in the real world, they do.
