States and cities defy and disobey Trumps order!

I am not any kind of authority. The people are the authority. Not the government. Not Trump. You just asked how honest people can support breaking the law and I answered.

Your answer was an o;pinion and as i said, most people l disagree with your OPINION.

Eliminating federal funds earmarked for other programs would be unconstitutional.

BTW, sanctuary areas can be found in your Bible.
FWIW, there are other programs that threaten to deny funds if lower level governments don't do as they're told. For instance, CMUs (large metro areas, basically) aren't eligible for grants for road projects unless they do a transportation master plan every 5 years.

No it isn't.
You literally have not a single clue what you're talking about. A law that has funds attached is still a law that must be followed to at least fulfill the minimum requirement.

Yes the did. Now do hPul Harvey bit and tell the rest of the story. You won't do that will you? I wonder why.:D
I very much understand it, but I think you "understand" the Bible pretty much as well as you "understand" the Constitution.

Why am I wasting my time? Ya, no more.

Show me that in the constitution.

If you really understood the Bible you would have told the compete story. O maybe you do understand it, and realize you shot yourself in the head by us that as an example for sanctuary cities today.

You wanted to show everyone that you are much smarter than I am, but you failed.

It depends on how the original law was written, and sometimes there are "escape clauses" or time limitations that are attached. This is not just my opinion as there were a couple of constitutional lawyers recently on CNN that covered this, and they pointed out that very little federal money can be denied the states or local communities on the basis of unrelated issues. To try and do it otherwise usually leads to court cases with the burden of proof being on the fed.

Indeed. However I don't know if it is universally true that less people believe they shouldn't exist. And even if that were true the point I makes still stands.

You wouldn't believe it if I gave you hard facts. IMO, which all you have, is that your point does not stand.

Except without your alleged facts, all you got is opinion...
Which puts you in the exact same boat you say he is in.

I nave said I have any facts. I said, Since there are far more cities that are not sanctuary cities, it seem logical they are in the minority.

You ain't to good at back peddling, are you?

YOUR post:
What facts are you talking about in the above quoted post?

The FACT that there are far more non-sanctuary cities than there are sanctuary cities. That is a hard fact and the only one I have mentioned.

Hes saying Sanctuary cities have to put all undocumented immigrants in jail? WOW! Some president. The states and cities that are sanctuary cities are disobeying his orders. Only one is doing it,Miami that's it.
So you're saying you're in support of the Mexican threat to flood the U.S. with drugs?
