Remember Francisco Sanchez? He’s the illegal immigrant who had been deported five — yes, five — times before killing Kathryn Steinle in San Francisco, one of the U.S.’s so-called “sanctuary cities.”
Now, if you’ve got a sense of how laws are supposed to work, you’re probably wondering how sanctuary cities exist in the first place. You’re not alone.
Mark Fuhrman on “sanctuary city” policies: “I’m not understanding just how you ignore federal law.” #KellyFile

Here’s a great question:
@megynkelly – if we don't like fed law we can declare our city or state a sanctuary and not follow law? Does that work with any law?

Well, you know what they say: What’s good for the goose …
@megynkelly So if San Fransisco can ignore Federal Law does that mean we can ignore Obamacare? We can call them Sanity Cities.

Oh, who are we kidding? We know exactly why selective law enforcement is a thing.

@andrewtwalk @seanmdav some things are good and some are bad. You follow the 'good' laws and ignore the 'bad' ones.

@seanmdav @jjauthor Because one helps the Democrat Party and their agenda and one doesn't. It's always about politics.
