[RD] Sanctuary Cities

[plarq]

I'm thinking if they can get enough conservative judges, they can pass some absurd explanation in 1st Amendment, essentially deprived naturalized citizens' freedom of speech by declaring their freedom would violate their pledge of allegiance and thus render their citizenship null and void.

The thing that twists right wingers' chains is that "conservative judges" so frequently turn out to be, well, still judges. The right operates in this fantasy where if they can just pack the court with conservatives that every blatantly unconstitutional thing the right wants to see happen will somehow just be waived through, and when the left says "let's do this" the right wants the court to stop it, not because it is unconstitutional but just because it's the left. Thus far that hasn't happened, even though there has been a conservative majority on the court for decades. Hopefully it won't.

It would be epic if Gorsuch wrote the opinion on the travel ban or the sanctuary city case smacking Trump down.

There's some sort of process to who writes the opinions, yes? I would think that such a gesture, however satisfying *I* might think it would be, is something that would be avoided.

The most senior justice in the majority assigns the opinion. It would likely not be assigned to Gorsuch.

I thought something like that. Too bad though, as that would be epic.

Instead have so many Sanctuary Cities, the United States government can create a new "Dreamer City" locating inside a less populated democratic state like New Mexico.

The undocumented immigrants should be separated from the regular populations to avoid crime and other racial-related problems. Most of the debates raised from those dreamers were "Keep Family Together". There are approximately 1.8 million dreamers out of the 11 million undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States. Why not gather the 1.8 millions and their associated family members, then reallocate them into a unique district, so they can fulfill their dreams as what Former President Obama had promised and also grant the Republicans by constructing the Trump border wall around "New Mexico City" at the same time.

Gambling business were/are legalized and localized in Las Vegas, NV and the surrounding cities. If people don't like slots and jackpots, don't go or live there.

If a Mexican American wants to be with his/her family, move to "New Mexico City".

Wow. tuckerkao necroing a thread? What a novel turn of events.

...Gambling business were/are legalized and localized in Las Vegas, NV and the surrounding cities. .

BTW: Those "surrounding cities" are collectively known as "Nevada."

I think we're long overdue for a formal name change of Nevada to "Las Vegas And The Surrounding Area"

 

[BillysBadFurDay]

well the democrats need all those illegal immigrants if they hope to ever win an election. Liberals are importing voters.

Can I ask what makes you say this?

I would hazard a guess the Alex Jones segment where he says the Democrats are "bussing in" illegals "by train" to vote.
(That busses are not trains seems to have escaped him.)
