On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “New Day,” Representative Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) argued, “they call them sanctuary cities, what I would say…they’re Fourth Amendment cities.”
Gutierrez said,
“Here’s how I see it, they call them sanctuary cities, what I would say, Chris, they’re Fourth Amendment cities. Why do I say that? If you supply a warrant to the city of Chicago, right, we will absolutely honor that warrant. But you’ve got to get a warrant. So think about it a moment, the DEA, the FBI, the ATF, they get warrants, right? They go and pick people up. What ICE, which is another federal law enforcement agency, does, is it wants to have people detained, and wants the city of Chicago to go after people without any probable cause being submitted before the court, and without a warrant.”
Again, another elected Democrat that doesn’t understand the laws he is asked to enforce. ICE doesn’t stop people in a sanctuary city and ask for ID randomly. Once you are arrested for an actual crime your immigration status then becomes pertinent.
Kind of like when you are arrested for kidnapping and they find cocaine in your basement where you chained the victims. You are getting charged with both crimes.
Amendment 4 reads:
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
How does this Amendment have ANYTHING to do with ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS?! This pertains to American Citizens, not foreign nationals!!!
