End of Criminal Illegal Immigrants’ Sanctuary Cities: ICE’s Department of Homeland Security’s; Secure Communities Act of 2008/2010:
By Marc Chamot

"Sanctuary city policies were never meant to protect criminal behavior," San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom’s mayoral spokesperson Tony Winnicker said May 7, when San Francisco Sheriff Mike Hennessey blew the whistle on the federal-local fingerprinting collaboration. "At the end of the day, federal officials should enforce immigration laws. We report — we don't deport."

Some police chiefs from around the nation went to the U.S. Capital to complain to AG Eric Holder, about the harshness of Arizona’s new anti-illegal aliens’ law, SB 1070. They all said, it could lead to increases of crimes, rather than do well for communities. They also said it would break down the trust that police have built, within their communities laden with undocumented aliens.

Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck and president of Arizona Association of Chiefs of Police, John Harris were saying, “Laws like these will actually increase crimes, not decrease them.” They said that enforcing legal statuses of undocumented aliens, It would keep them from doing their real jobs.

In essence, these cops were admitting that there are crimes among the undocumented, and secondly, I don’t think the American people will believe these lines of police BS for a minute, it’s more logical the other way around, if we get rid of the criminal elements of illegal’s, then what do we need to worry about if these people talk?

The way it is, it’s a known FACT, many of the undocumented do not get involved with police in the first place, they are deathly afraid in getting too involved by witnessing crimes, especially where they can be noticed by our court systems and the Feds.

These cops are a bunch of whiners who don’t want to do their REAL jobs, like protecting their citizenries; they appear to be more on the side for the pro-open borders groups.

As such, Sheriff of San Francisco County, Mike Hennessey, he ratted out on the U.S. Secure Communities Act of 2010. It was first proposed in 2008 by former President George Bush; it’s ICE and Department of Homeland Security new identification program, to nab criminal illegal aliens anywhere within the United States upon their arrest.

He's definately no Joe Arpaio, and he'll never make a pimple to Arpaio's a...

Sheriff Hennessey cried foul, when it came closer to the deadline, to begin enforcing the new federal regulations on clamping down on criminal illegal immigrants. He exposed the fingerprinting processes of the Feds to the liberal board of supervisors.

What was most shocking to these bands of progressives on the board; Sherriff Hennessey told them that it was President Obama, along with his Democratic congress that pushed for these new fingerprinting of criminal illegal immigrants’ laws.

Source: sfbg.com "San Francisco Supervisor David Campos thanks Hennessey for blowing the whistle, and lays the blame at Obama's door. "None of us would have known this was happening," Campos said. "This is the time for all San Francisco's elected officials to stand up in support of the principles that led us to establish a sanctuary city. It's not just the board, but also the mayor who needs to step up and say what just happened is not acceptable. This program eviscerates sanctuary city."

"The shadow of Arizona is starting to cover other cities," Mar said, referring to Arizona's anti-immigrant legislation, SB 1070. "We can't let Arizona come to San Francisco." They soon discovered that the new law would basically make all sanctuary cities, non-existent in the United States.

But American Civil Liberties Union legislative counsel Joanne Lin warned that Secure Communities allows the federal government to circumvent local sanctuary policies and fast-track deportation. "It allows the Department of Homeland Security to identify everyone who is booked, whether they are here lawfully or their charges are subsequently dropped or dismissed," Lin said.

The program links local law enforcement databases to the Department of Homeland Security's biometric system through interoperability agreements with states, allowing instantaneous information-sharing among local jails, ICE, and the FBI.

ICE implemented the program in North Carolina and Texas in October 2008. Under President Obama, the program has been activated in 169 jurisdictions in 20 states. ICE plans to have a Secure Communities presence in each state by 2011 and in each of the 3,100 state and local jails nationwide by 2013, according to its Web site.

Under the program, participating jails submit fingerprints of arrestees to immigration and criminal databases, thereby giving ICE a technological presence in prisons and jails. An overview conducted by the Washington, D.C.-based nonpartisan National Immigration Law Center observes that "the critical element" of the program is that, during booking in jail, arrestees' fingerprints will be checked against DHS databases, rather than just against FBI criminal databases.

"ICE asserts that the purpose of the Secure Communities program is to target violent criminals for removal," NILC observed. "Advocates had criticized the program's operation because it took place at the beginning of the criminal process and therefore indiscriminately targeted persons arrested for crimes of all magnitudes, rather than persons convicted of serious crimes."

So Sheriff Hennessey went to Democratic governor wannabe and state Attorney General Jerry Brown, asking permission not to enforce and or, even going as far to break federal laws on fingerprinting enforcements on illegal aliens. And just recently AG Jerry Brown came back with an answer that he and the city progressives didn’t like, with a “Hell No!”

Mainstreams Medias covered this one up, pretty well. I’ve got to hand it for President Obama, he appeared to be friends of undocumented’s and pro-open borders bunches; he certainly isn’t a friend of criminal illegal aliens.
