According to a group that follows the illegal alien situation, Lake Worth has become a Sanctuary City. DID YOU HEAR THAT? Several days ago I put that announcement in the Marquee and not ONE person e-mailed me with an inquiry. I thought that rather amazing. Are we now just going to capitulate--accept it all as natural? as normal? as NOT breaking the law? When and how did it happen? Why are we all looking the other way as illegals invade our city and legal residents put their homes up for sale?
Our City attracts every liberal ever born. It’s sort of like, well if I support gay rights as an example, then I need to support rights for every human being for every cause and any reason. I can't be liberal on one front without being liberal on all. Heaven forbid that we would take a liberal stand on one issue and not on another.
Gavin Newsom, whose politics are left of left, was here just a few weeks ago spouting his liberal agenda. He wants to run for Governor of California and is making stops to gather support from various groups that may support him. He is well aware that Lake Worth is very liberal on many fronts. He says he is for fairness and human rights but does not listen to the legal citizens and is way out in left field on this issue--illegal aliens. You are illegal and want to come here, heck yes. California is publicizing the fact that San Francisco, where Mr. Newsom is Mayor, is a Sanctuary City. He has taken a lot of heat because there are gangs whose members are illegal (just like Lake Worth) and committing serious crimes just as they do here. Newsom is now re-thinking his policy.
Lake Worth does not have a formal written ordinance on illegal aliens (that's what they ARE Speaker Pelosi and Commissioner Golden!!) but the fact that it is a Sanctuary City can be proved by its informal policies, allowing The Mentoring Center to exist, as an example…giving them a $1 a year lease to help the illegal alien population and using this as an employment center. We know for a fact that there are certain residents in our City who are “open-border” people. A couple of them belong to the Lake Worth Democratic Club and one is on our Commission.
We just had a proposed Ordinance that was shot down, allowing each residence to have 6 chickens and ducks along with chicken coops, that was designed for the illegal alien's culture rather than insisting that immigrants fit into ours...and I didn't say "illegal aliens." That is a category all by itself. Why wasn't the entire city outraged by this proposal?
Now we have a Commission and one Commissioner in particular that is keen on forming a Community Relations Board to deal with racial and ethnic issues/problems within the city…to ensure that the police are not over-reacting, etc. when confronting illegals. Let's call it what it really is...a Board to protect illegal aliens. We don’t have any ethnic issues in our city other than people here who have broken our laws by 1) just by being here and 2) committing illegal acts. We would not have near as many so called "problems" if our Commission followed the law on illegal aliens.
HB 567 was introduced that would prohibit sanctuary cities by law. This would be in addition to the Federal law that is already in place prohibiting the very same thing.What this Bill says is, the police would be required to contact ICE if they even suspect that they have illegals in custody. The Bill’s purpose is to keep criminals from getting back on the streets. At least it is a Bill heading in the right direction that has been stifled by certain politicians in Miami, the largest Sanctuary City in the State of Florida--and look at the problems they have.
There are some elected officials beholding to big business. Large corporations are the ones benefiting from the illegal alien migration. There is a food service company, Bon Appetit Management, that says Florida is committing a despicable act by not paying tomato pickers more money. There have been seven slavery convictions over the last ten years in Florida involving farm workers. Our do-gooder politicians are contributing to "slavery." Listening Commissioners? Their response: "Their living conditions are better here than where they came from."
I am sick of this Socialistic agenda. Aren’t you? I know that you are because you tell me so. If you continue to look the other way and believe that there is nothing you can do about it, then those breaking our laws win...those who don't believe that there should be ANY laws win!
Let’s take back our City, our State and our Country.
