I'm not surprised. It seems some people here skip to the 1st amendment and stop reading after the 2nd.

And seriously, it seems like mostly the same people who are jumping up and down to throw illegals in jail at taxpayer expense for $136 a day but begrudge every penny spent on helping the poor who are actual citizens.

Agreed.

Any individual who harbored this dangerous criminal in their home would be facing charges, so why not these ass clowns?

I am sure is not in the Constitution..........but, it is a law.
No, it isn't.

Clearly, illegal aliens aren't subject to U.S. jurisdiction as they are not prosecuted for illegal entry and/or remaining in the country illegally, even when caught.

Guess what would happen to an actual U.S. citizen who gets caught breaking federal law.

The Wong Kim Ark ruling further clarified that the children born in the U.S. of legal, permanent residents (who actually are subject to U.S. jurisdiction given their legal status) were automatically U.S. citizens. WKA's parents were in the U.S. legally when WKA was born in the U.S., as noted in the ruling. Anchor babies' parents aren't.

No, he never said anything even close to that. Link to a quote of has that says what you posted.

If I was the parent of the victim, I would investigate the households of the city officials to see if they employ illegals as servants. Spread the lawsuits far and wide in city government.

There are a lot more possibilities than that. Odds are that most people violate one or more laws quite often.

The entire city council at the time of inception of the law and every member that went along with it since its inception, would be brought up on charges of accessory to murder, racketeering, and organized crime.
