Despite 2 arrests, California’s sanctuary state law prohibited authorities from turning Sureños gang member Gustavo Perez Arriaga over to ICE for deportation back to Mexico
Gustavo Perez Arriaga, 32, crossed into Arizona from Mexico illegally a couple of years ago and became a member of the violent Sureños street gang in California. Arriaga shot dead a town of Newman police officer Wednesday morning during an attempted DUI traffic stop.
Despite 2 prior DUI arrests, authorities were prohibited by California’s sanctuary state law from turning Arriaga over to ICE for deportation back to Mexico. Had the thug been turned over to ICE, officer Ronil "Ron" Singh, who leaves behind his wife and 5-month-old son, would still be alive today.
How sad that a sanctuary state protected a cop killer. In addition to California’s sanctuary state, cities throughout the country have passed sanctuary ordinances. Are they also protecting cop killers? For sure, they are protecting illegal immigrant criminals.
We have a serious immigration problem because poverty-stricken people in other countries believe American streets are paved with gold.
The border wall President Trump wants is not in place. But the biggest immigration problem of all is not the absence of a wall or the lack of border security … it’s those sanctuary laws. They not only encourage illegal immigration, but they also prevent the criminal element among illegal immigrants from being deported back to the country they migrated from.

My understanding is that there are some folks working on a voter initiative that would overturn this law and allow law enforcement to cooperate with ice.
The feds need to start prosecuting sanctuary city/state officials for hindering apprehension, organized criminal conspiracy.
Anon, I believe you are correct. However, in CA the A. G., who is a partisan, selects the TITLE of ballot initiatives, which is all many people read. All the A. G. has to select is a title that say "RACIST BASTARDS ATTEMPT TO KEEP POOR HARDOWRKING IMMIGRANTS IN PRISON" and it won't get much traction.
Bob, I think that’s what happened with prop 57.
The title inferred that it would increase public safety so folks voted for it.
We all know the opposite happened.
Perhaps we need an initiative that takes the ballot title away from the attorney general and allows the California Supreme Court to take care of it.
There have been numerous surveys done on this topic.
Voters don’t want municipal police doing immigration enforcement for people whose only crime is being in the country illegally.
However, they do want people who are criminals deported and the police to be able to communicate with ice to get rid of criminal aliens.
There should be a voter initiative that can be crafted that would pass that would be responsive to the voters concerns, as the state democrats are to extreme to be responsive to this reasonable middle ground.
