Why would the police want to call ICE on innocent gangbangers? They’re not bothering anyone -- they are only seeking a better life.
Quote:
Montgomery County police have been warned against turning over illegal immigrants to federal immigration agents based on affiliation with gangs, according to a memo sent to officers.
A September memo authorized by Police Chief J. Thomas Manger reminds police that they can only contact U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents if they arrest someone for violent or handgun-related crimes.
When suspects are arrested for other crimes, "ICE will NOT be contacted, regardless of the individual's legal status and/or perceived gang affiliation," the memo said.
