re: For Those Who Support Sanctuary Cities, Convince Me Why It's a Good Thing

Because it isn't about sanctuary or promoting illegals. It is about the feds requiring local police resources and local jail resources to be used free of charge to do federal immigration policing. What you don't realize is that the feds want local police forces, which are already underfunded and understaffed, to use their forces to detain people on immigration holds, when they don't have enough jail space for local criminals. The local governments have had enough. They simply don't want to devote their limited resources to immigration issues, which are federal issues.
