Judge rejects challenge to ordinance barring police from approaching persons solely for immigration purposes
Judge Rolf M. Treu of Los Angeles Superior Court granted a motion from the city and the American Civil Liberties Union for a summary judgment against a suit filed in 2006 by Judicial Watch, a conservative legal group, challenging Special Order 40, a long standing order that prohibits local police from approaching persons solely to ascertain their immigration status. Judge True held that the order did not violate federal immigration law, nor barred federal immigration agencies from communicating with local police. For the full story, click here.

There will no doubt be more deaths of citizens at the hands of illegal alien Latin Americans in the future. Much of the blame should be assigned to the efforts of ethnocentric illegal immigration advocates protecting their charges at the expense of our citizens. The deaths of citizens is collateral damage of the open borders advocates efforts to protect those who have no right to be present in this country in the first place.
This will not stand on appeal.
