NYPD isn't allowed to break up youth gang

[Frozenbeernuts 2,330]

It's only a youth gang holding people up at gun point people. This is what liberalism is all about. Allowing the slippery slope to turn into a cliff.

Who here is in favor of sanctuary cities?  

Other than Tim and Squinty?  Anyone?

That’s sad news.

Can any define what is a conservative in today’s world?

Somebody with the balls to make a difficult choice for Trump in this election, as the lesser of two evils.  

You aren't one.

Lesser of two evils is how one would define a conservative today,  that’s horrible, so really a conservative is just another way of saying liberal, same values, just like not calling killing children murder, just call it abortion,  you described it perfectly, thank you.  

And of course trump once was friends with liberals, do your view makes sense.  Good job.

Here’s a reason I’m pro-choice. How can I be a hypocrite and complain about this, but be mad if their parents couldn’t abort them?

Sorry we couldn't connect as well!

Yeah, I know.  He's been an even bigger PITA than usual recently, thinking he has some big "gotcha" about what a "conservative" is.

Idiots like weepaws in the Republican party got Kari Lake chosen as our Senate nominee.  She supported the 1864 law prohibiting all abortions at one point.  Guess what?  She's going to get her ass kicked in the general by Ruben Gallego, a very liberal/progressive Democrat.

He continues to support that 1864 ban.  If that were still in place, Prop 139 would win in a landslide, which adds to our Constitution the right to abortion until birth.  Instead we got the newer, 15 week ban, and with it a decent chance of blocking Prop 139 for going too far.

To weepaws simple mind, he is doing right by his surfer dood God by this position.  I think if he truly listened to God, he'd hear the message to not let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

Sad to think that there was a time not long ago, when South American gang problems were limited to South America. 

Our nation is ending badly. The death blow will be the day the US (AKA Taxpayers) get a margin call on 'our' debt. 100+ trillion once you add current and future unfunded liabilities for SS and Medicare.

I'm not sure that I am for or against them. But I believe the definition has been skewed by the Right.   It doesn't mean, "please come here, we want Illegal people" it means "hey, if you are already here, we won't rat you out to the Fed's if you call 911 when you see a crime".    Now, that may invite more Illegals by default, but the Sanctuary does not implicitly mean they want more of them.

 Time for vigilante justice. It’s time to cut the head off the snake. Our current leadership won’t, time for hope and change.

So we have at least one " im not sure what I think about them"

I can add a third column and tally it.

Maybe instead of "Sanctuary Cities" they should be called "The Feds can do their own job when it comes to Immigration Status Cities".

So you think sanctuary cities haven’t said you’re welcome to come here? We’ll house and feed you?

I don't.  But any city that does is stupid.
