   Way to go Mrs. Bologna!! She’s done more to end this stupid sanctuary city nonsence than our federal government has.

   Is there a fund we can contribute to help out?

   Good! This is exactly what I was talking about the other day. I predict that this will be the case that starts the beginning of the end for sanctuary cities. God bless you, Mrs. Bologna.

   Sure they haven’t. SF see what happens when you do the wrong thing, bad things happen. This ain’t a fairy tale. It’s the death of a father and his 2 sons due to the city’s negligence.

   A very high price to pay for some justice. Its tragic that in America, a citizen has to resort to a lawsuit to make officials do their fundamental legal duty.

   My only argument with the Iraq war was that we should have sent the troops to take back San Francisco first. Someone has to straighten out these traitors

   The claim alleges the city knew Ramos “would likely murder men simply because they appeared to be Latino or African American.”

   And they just let him go. They had him and they let a MS-13 thug loose. This is what passes for law enforcement when the Looneyleft is in charge. Wouldn’t want to hurt his feelings, you understand.

    The city should be sued for as much as they can get, then the council-people need to be indicted and sent to jail. Then the attention needs to be directed to every other sanctuary city in the country.

    Good on Mrs. Bologna!! My thoughts and prayers are with her, and if someone sets up a way for people to donate in order to help offset her legal fees, my dollars will be with her as well.

    San Mateo County, as well as other surrounding counties who are forced to suffer because of San Francisco’s derelict and illegal sanctuary policies, need to sue the pants off of them, as well. It’s long past time to fight back against stupidity and corruption.

    Good for her. Why is she not also sueing the Federal Government? These Cities are against Federal Law. What has this administration done to shut them down? ZZZZZZZZZZ

    And a Vote for McCain OR Obama is a vote to continue as is.

    Chuck Baldwin is the only candidate that will enforce the laws, and follow the Constitution.

    But he doesn’t have an “R” on his Jersey, like McCain claims to have.

    Didn’t McCain contemplate running as John Kerry’s VP pick in 04?

    Good. I hope she bankrupts that city. The nerve of these elitists to not only do it in the first place but to continue the horrible policy after a citizen is the victim of their ignorance. This tragedy was most definitely avoidable. I will bet La Raza could care less about the plight of the Bologna family. The sacrifice of a few Americans is worth the lofty goal of hispanicizing America to la rza and thier ignorant multi-cult liberal supporters. La Raza shold be deemed a racist group and ostracized from America altogether. Anyway, good luck to her. The outcome could very well determine the future of this country.

    My big question?

    Where is the US Justice Department?

    Why is this policy NOT a conspiricy to aid and abet Felons?

    Its a FELONY to knowingly harbor fugitives.

    Therefore, this policy is instructing the Police to perpetuate a FELONY… and is by its very nature, a conspiricy to bypass the law.

    Why has the Justice Department been so silent on this?

    The city has 45 days to respond to the wrongful death claim, which is a precursor to a lawsuit.

    The city has seen the clain. Most likely S.O.P. to say nada about it.

    The city council and the mayor went to great lengths to see to it that this evasion policy was put in place. They are clearly culpable in this triple murder.

    In addition to naming the mayor, the suit, should one be filed, should name the members of the council that supported this policy.

    Sad to say, President Bush and his Attorney General(s) should be added as defendants when a suit is filed (Friday’s action was a claim, as I understand it, a prelude to a suit.) Why hasn’t our federal government enforced the damn law???

    From FAIR:

    Recognizing the adoption of sanctuary policies as a growing impediment to combating the wave of illegal aliens residing in the country, in 1996 Congress barred local ordinances that prohibit employees from providing information on illegal aliens to federal officials.However,Houston, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, and other major cities have sanctuary policies in place.

    Why didn’t the 3 deaths in Newark, NJ, last year, in the SAME CIRCUMSTANCES, result in a lawsuit???

    Note in that instance, the NJ Atty. General changed the policy!.

    Trenton, NJ – Attorney General Anne Milgram today issued a directive to state law enforcement agencies regarding their relationship with federal immigration authorities. Milgram said local police must inquire about immigration status after an officer has arrested an individual on serious criminal charges, and shall notify Immigration Customs Enforcement (“ICE”), the prosecuting agency, and the court if there is a reason to believe that the arrestee may be an undocumented immigrant. …

    Why “wrongful death”?

    I thought that the settled law was that if breaking a lesser law to help a person, such as a misdemenor resulted in a murder, that the helper was as guilty of murder as the perp.

    In this case we have someone setting up a “mafia-style safehouse system”, breaking the law by harboring a fugitive. The fugitive committed a triple murder. Why aren’t the “Don of SF” and his El Capo in the Police and Diversity dept.s also charged w/murder?

    I seem to remember in the late 60s, there were actual cases where that happened, and the people running the syndicate safehouse up to those who ordered the system setup were charged.

    Doesn’t the law apply equally to all?
