Just heard a liberal political pundit make a case about sanctuary cities stating that it helps to get illegals to report crimes and provide eyewitness testimony. The problem with this mindset is that the greatest issue police officers have in solving crimes in African American communities is that no one talks. They're legal citizens of the United States and they're afraid to work with the police. What would make these Hispanic communities any different? Not talking is a cultural issue in certain minority communities.
The safest thing to do for the citizens of these sanctuary cities would be for the police to notify ICE if any illegal immigrant is guilty of committing a crime (i.e. DWI’s, petty crimes, traffic violations, murder, rape, etc.). Why in the world wouldn’t getting these criminals out of their neighborhoods not make them safer?
I know they’re not completely innocent if they’re here illegally but when some of them get hurt because of other illegals who further break our laws, then I believe we have a moral obligation to protect them too. The police shouldn’t have to worry about getting people from these communities to talk. If someone breaks the law and is an illegal immigrant, there’s no need for our court system to get involved; ICE should be contacted and the person(s), should be removed from our country. This protects the communities they’re from and those who are here legally.
What I'd love to know is how many of these people who are breaking our laws, can speak English. The bottom line is if any of us moved to another country like Italy, France, or Greece, we would be expected to learn their language before becoming a legal citizen. I believe that if someone doesn’t have any form of identification and can’t speak English, then he or she should be removed from our country. This is certainly how we’d be treated in other countries.
