If you don't like what NYC is doing maybe you should lobby them? I'm sure they'd listen to you just as much as the current federal government would listen to NY

- avocado4 7y agoI don't have a horse in this race. And I don't like the current immigration laws, I'd rather have legally open borders. But it doesn't mean existing laws shouldn't be enforced IMO.
- URSpider94 7y agoState governments have no duty to enforce Federal laws.
- ta999999171 7y agoBut they do have a legal obligation, in certain cases, as a side effect of taking Fed funding. Not in agreement with it, just worth noting.
- vertex-four 7y agoSo you’re going to go to the police now with the information you have on your friends’/coworkers’ drug habits, right? After all, laws should be enforced, and everyone should proactively give any support they might be able to give to the police.
- refurb 7y agoThat’s not what he’s saying at all.
- vertex-four 7y agoSorry, but it kind of is. New York has decided not to proactively provide some information to a law enforcement agency. avocado4 is claiming that this is "trying to prevent enforcement". Obviously that is nonsense.
