The Northwest Nonsense
Almost 70 years ago, Governor Orval Faubus stood in the schoolhouse door and infamously refused to follow federal law and let 9 black kids go to school with white kids.
Faubus belonged to the democrat party and he let his own bigotry get in the way of both the law and what’s best for his own citizens.
Today’s Democrat party members here in the Pacific Northwest refuse to let the government enforce federal law and arrest illegal alien law breakers.
Just like Faubus, their crazy policies don’t benefit the people of their states.
Governors Tina Kotek (Oregon) and Bob Ferguson (Washington) promise to use taxpayer resources to prevent the arrest of criminals in communities all over Oregon and Washington.
Illegal aliens make up maybe 5 percent of the population but they are 14 percent of the convicted killers and 18 percent of the rapists.
Yet, Democrats allow their own personal bigotry to get in the way of what’s best for citizens…and what’s legal under federal law, which is Trump’s state law.
We have our own history of “Laken Riley” like crimes that have taken the lives of Northwest residents.
It’s long past time that elected elites like Kotek and Ferguson serve their own people and follow the law.
If they don’t, it’s time for President Trump to send in Federal Marshals to arrest them for impeding enforcement of immigration laws.
