US Sanctuary Zones Highlighted Amid Migrant Crisis

Venezuelan Prison Gang in Denver

It's important for law-abiding citizens in the United States to be aware of cities, counties, and states that have regulations in place that hinder immigration enforcement and protect illegal immigrants from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. This awareness has become more crucial as the Biden-Harris administration's policies have resulted in an influx of third-world immigrants into the first world, potentially increasing the risk of violent crime and chaos. Last week, the nation was shocked by footage showing members of the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua raiding an apartment building in the northern Denver suburb of Aurora, armed with at least one AR-style rifle and pistols. This incident underscored how quickly sanctuary cities, often governed by far-left Democrats, can descend into chaos after welcoming illegal immigrants.

Sanctuary Cities and the Risk of Crime

Sanctuary cities have welcomed millions of illegal immigrants, including prison gang members who show little respect for first-world laws. The push to defund the police, advocated by Democrat lawmakers across the nation, increases the risk that local municipalities could quickly become overwhelmed. The Center for Immigration Studies, an independent think tank, has outlined the cities, counties, and states with regulations that obstruct immigration enforcement and protect criminals from ICE. These areas potentially carry a high risk for violent crime and, for safety reasons, should be avoided.

List of Sanctuary Zones

The list of sanctuary zones includes states such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, and Washington. Cities and counties include the District of Columbia, Washington, Georgia, Athens-Clarke County, Atlanta, Columbia County, DeKalb County, Douglas County, and many others.

Impact of Open Border Policies

The chaos caused by a Venezuelan prison gang in a Denver suburb serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences of the Biden-Harris administration's open southern border policies. It underscores the risk that other sanctuary cities and areas could also descend into turmoil.

Police Overwhelmed?

With the police potentially overwhelmed, the question arises: who will come to help in times of crisis? This situation has sparked debate and controversy, with some arguing that the citizens of Aurora, Colorado, voted for the politicians who allowed the Venezuelan gang into the country. This highlights the consequences of elections and the importance of voting.

Sanctuary City Policies

There have been instances where law enforcement officers have been unable to take action against illegal immigrants due to sanctuary city policies. This has led to outrage and calls for reform.

Bottom Line

The situation unfolding in Denver and other sanctuary cities across the United States is a stark reminder of the potential consequences of certain immigration policies. It raises questions about the balance between providing sanctuary for immigrants and ensuring the safety and security of all residents. What are your thoughts on this issue?
