287G About To Be No More

ICE. Is melting.

Otherwise named, How To Stop County Lawmen From Catching Illegal Aliens.
Because ICE is told to just release instead of catch-and-release.

So. Does this mean the Feds, aka DOJ, can now drop their lawsuit against Sheriff Arpaio?

Robotic Border Patrols

Not where you may think.

They are flying.

But is it enough? Nope. Just looking, aren’t they?

Defending AZ SB 1070 Law in Court

A Wyoming man has given more than $1.5 million to help defend Arizona’s controversial immigration enforcement measure in court, Gov. Jan Brewer’s office said Thursday.

How about that, a Patriot that knows how to put the money to best use.

UPDATEx2: Another Ultimatum to Sheriff Joe

Sheriff Joe Arpaio now has until 9/10 to comply with a Justice Department request to explain his office’s “operations, policies and procedures” involving the arrest and detention of Hispanics, according to a letter obtained by ABC News.

Gee, sounds to me like the DOJ is putting words into the Sheriff’s mouth – trying to make it seem as though there is profiling, discrimination, bias going on.

Yet, the DOJ doesn’t seem to say anything about the violence and murders being perpetrated by the Mexican drug cartel members that have come across our southern border to perform their crimes on our citizens.

Unbelievable.

UPDATE: Here comes the lawsuit. Seems DOJ is claiming the following: alleged discrimination, unconstitutional searches and seizures, and having English-only policies in his jails that discriminate against people with limited English skills.
Cretins.

UPDATEx2: Apparently as a result of a Freedom of Information Act submission, ICE had cleared Sheriff Arpaio of any wrongdoing 5 months prior to the DOJ filing court papers against the Sheriff in 2010. Meaning, ICE investigated him in 2009 and now the DOJ is suing (in 2010) on those exact same charges back in 2009. Sheesh.

No Confidence

From Border Patrol agents AND ICE agents no less concerning the Administration on the issue of real border security.

Their point? The government will spend resources combating SB1070 rather than expend resources to effect better border patrol.

And ICE has been told to ‘prioritize‘. Yup. How about that.

I gotta say, yeah – priorities are definitely misplaced, misguided and mistaken.
On the part of our “leaders” (cough).

Apparently, there is no confidence inside Mexico either. Particularly when their own police kill their own Mayor.

All the more reason to put up a huge wall apparently.

We Have Met The Enemy

But it is not Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

This man is doing the job the entire Federal Government refuses to do.
He has a price on his head per the Mexican drug cartel.

And now the DOJ is going to sue him.

I mentioned this to Sean & Frank on WCBM one morning not too long ago. That the guvmint was also sending a message to the county sheriffs that participate in the 287G ICE program. Besides sending that message to Arizona’s Governor about their newly crafted SB 1070.

(I had no idea I was so prophetic at the time.)

The Administration’s message? “Don’t bother the illegals.”

Well, come November 2, 2010, we aren’t going to bother re-electing any incumbents.

We need to divide the government, folks. Single party control is not good for us.

Mexico Drug Cartel – $1M Bounty for Sheriff’s Head

Even for a watered down bill (SB 1070) going into effect, the Mexican drug cartel seems to be feeling its oats.

This won’t end well.

Future For AZ SB1070?

Not if the POTUS gets his way.

Some insightful comments about what may be the future of SB 1070 after court proceedings by Professor Jacobson. Smart guy.

Still, from what I read from this, it doesn’t solve the financial hit(s) we suffer from this situation.

Preempting the DOJ

“How is there a preemption issue?” the judge asked. “I understand there may be other issues, but you’re arguing preemption. Where is the preemption if everybody who is arrested for some [edit:other] crime has their immigration status checked?

I couldn’t agree more.

“Why can’t Arizona be as inhospitable as they wish to people who have entered or remained in the United States?” U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton asked in a pointed exchange with Deputy Solicitor General Edwin S. Kneedler. Her comment came during a rare federal court hearing in the Justice Department’s lawsuit against Arizona and Gov. Jan Brewer (R).
