David Wohl: Sanctuary City Officials Are Blurring the Lines of Those Who Have and Have Not Committed Crimes
MacCALLUM: "One of the things that is a head scratcher is that it's been made clear that the first concern is people who are criminals, we looked at a picture of the man who killed Kate Steinle, kicked out of the country five times and allowed to get back in without being prosecuted under the law that is already in place. So should people who are law abiding citizens, who live here illegally, should they be concerned at this point?"
WOHL: "Well, that's exactly right and these legislators are blurring the line between those who haven't committed a crime but are here illegally and those who has committed serious crimes like the man who killed Kate Steinle. Look, this isn't sanctuary from persecution. This is sanctuary from the rule of law, from a legal process, and that's what makes it illegal. It's incredibly reckless and, guess what, Martha, this risks not having federal funding cut off from a city or a county but an entire state of 39 million people is reckless and done for political expediency because we know Jerry Brown and his cronies all think the people who they're coming to the rescue of are going to vote Democrat. That's what this boils down to. They could also be prosecuted, I might add, for harboring fugitives, it's a giant mess. They need to stop it now. Mr. Trump will go after the worst of the worst and not the law-abiding people here working and just happen to need legal status."
