In December 2015, San Francisco resident Pedro Figueroa-Zarceno reported his car stolen. When he came for the police report, Immigration and Customs Enforcement was notified. Because Pedro is here illegally from El Salvador. He was picked up, and spent two months in federal immigration detention.<\/p>\n
Now Pedro is suing San Francisco. His lawyer, Saria Hussain, says: \u201cAs a victim of crime, Pedro Figueroa was exactly the type of person who should have been protected\u201d by San Francisco\u2019s sanctuary ordinance. Because Trump is promising mass deportations and threatening sanctuary cities, she says, everyone in law enforcement must be \u201cheld accountable.\u201d<\/p>\n
No, she doesn\u2019t see the irony in asking for law enforcement to be accountable. This woman is a liberal.<\/p>\n
Incidentally, Pedro was flagged because he had an outstanding warrant. He was supposed to be deported ten years ago. He also has a drunk driving conviction.<\/p>\n

Now he is demanding monetary damages. He also wants to force San Francisco police to file immigration paperwork stating he was falsely imprisoned. This could make him eligible for a visa. Meanwhile, San Francisco is investigating the officers who handled Pedro\u2019s case to see if they should be punished.<\/p>\n
Unless something changes, Mr. Zarceno can assume his lawsuit against the city will be resolved before immigration catches up with him again. They are backlogged over two years.<\/p>\n
This system needs fixing. Not later but right now.<\/p>\n

Confirmation hearings are ongoing. Scores of political fights are underway. One fight is especially awful. Naturally, Democrats are behind it.\r\n\r\nThe fight is over a painting \u2013 by an 18-year-old Missouri student. Supposedly, it represents police and community relations in Ferguson. In the painting, police are depicted as pigs. Who are shooting black people.\r\n\r\nThe student is a constituent of Congressman William Lacy Clay \u2013 Democrat, Missouri. Who had the painting hung in a public hallway in the Capitol building. Just steps away from on-duty cops protecting the building.\r\n\r\nOver the last few days, various Republican Congressmen have taken the painting down. Brian Babin of Texas, Dana Rohrabacher and Duncan Hunter of California, and Doug Lamborn of Colorado took it off the wall and returned it to Congressman Clay. Each time, it\u2019s been rehung.\r\n\r\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/admin.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Large.gif\")
The Congressional Black Caucasians got involved. When Black Caucus Chairman Cedric Richmond was asked if a security detail was needed for the painting, he said: \u201cWe might just have to kick somebody\u2019s ass \u2013 and stop them.\u201c\r\n\r\nCongressman Clay says he \u201cdoesn\u2019t disagree or agree\u201d with the message in the anti-police painting. He says he supports law enforcement. He says he\u2019s just fighting for the student to be able to express himself.\r\n\r\nSorry. Doesn\u2019t pass the smell test. Democrats are looking for a fight. This is a deliberate provocation \u2013 and a vile insult to every law enforcement officer in the country!\r\n\r\n\u00a0","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"\n
