They can say no, of course. They can also have funding to their state withheld and now face possible jail time for their decision.They aren't asked to hunt down illegals, that's where you've lost the debate. They are asked to hold those already under arrest for another law enforcement agency to process them on other charges.
This process is much safer for ICE agents, who would otherwise have to raid homes and neighborhoods and endanger the lives of law abiding citizens.
They're asked to hold people. They say no.
The SFPD is not under any legal obligation to turn people over to ICE when they get a detainer request.
As del has pointed out, in some places courts have ruled that ICE can't even make detainer requests.
Detainer is just a memo asking for someone to be held. It is not a court order to hold someone, like an arrest warrant. It's just a request - not a command.
Do you think the welfare constituents of their respective states will stand in unity with their illegal brethren when they don't get their checks?
No, actually they can't. Neither of those things are going to happen.
As for whatever you're blathering about "welfare constituents" and "their illegal brethren", I have no idea what in the name of fuck you're trying to say.
it's dog whistle stuff
I know. I like to watch them try to justify it, though.
try, indeed.
to a battle of wits etc. etc.
