Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) called for an end of “sanctuary city” policies after a Mexican illegal immigrant, shielded by city authorities from deportation, allegedly shot and killed 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle on Pier 14 in San Francisco.

As CNN notes, there is no strict legal definition of a “sanctuary city,” a term that advocates for mass immigration dislike for its revealing nature. The movement began thanks to American churches in the 1980s who welcomed illegal aliens from Central America purportedly fleeing violence from the Third World, much as they do today. Now, more than 200 state and local jurisdictions defy federal immigration law by refusing to detain illegal aliens who are usually caught in the commission of another crime for deportation.

“Conservatives say we believe in the rule of law, and the beginning of the rule of law is enforcing the law. Since 1986, there was a promise we would enforce the law on border security. We’ve done squat. We’ve done nothing… Eleven million people have crossed over illegally,” Paul said on the Laura Ingraham show on Tuesday. “So, the first thing we have to do is enforce the law.” He added:

But we have not had a president, Republican or Democrat, who is willing to enforce immigration law. Now we have whole cities and states who stand up and say, ‘We just don’t care. We want these people here at all costs, and we’re not going to do anything about it.’ And I think the time’s come for that to end. But it’s not going to end until you have an executive in the White House who says, ‘I will enforce immigration laws.’

Ingraham noted that Americans are not safe from criminal aliens anywhere in the country, thanks to the sheer number who are here illegally. Paul agreed, calling for a grassroots uprising against President Obama and his administration’s dismantling of immigration law:

Well, it goes to the heart of the matter, because like I say, we’ve been promised this over and over again, and no one’s enforcing the laws. The laws on the books say we should have a secure border, and we don’t. Now, could we update the security? Yes. But even the existing laws need to be enforced, and they’re not being enforced. And they’re being flouted and basically laughed at by cities like San Francisco… They’re ought to be a revolution of folks saying, ‘We want you to obey the law,’ and making sure the president hears them loud and clear.

Paul now joins candidates Donald Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) in calling for strict border controls to protect Americans from convicted felons such as Francisco Sanchez, who was deported five times yet sought out San Francisco deliberately because he knew he would not be deported from there — no matter what previous offenses he had committed on U.S. soil.

His stance also puts him significantly at odds with Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). Rubio played a pivotal role in pushing the Gang of Eight bill in 2013. An amended version of Rubio’s bill would have made it impossible to punish sanctuary cities that harbor dangerous illegal aliens like Sanchez by stripping federal funds from them. Had Gang of Eight become law, San Francisco would continue to receive blood money in the form of State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) payments, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) would have struggled to even detain criminals like Sanchez.


Poster Comment:

“So, the first thing we have to do is enforce the law.”
What's the second thing? Amnesty.

Whenever you hear "the first thing" you need to worry about what the second and subsequent things are. Are Trump and Cruz any better in this regard, or are they pandering to the mentally handicapped too?

Rand sounds good on this for the most part, but that "first thing" is a huge loophole. (1 image)

Shut up Rand Paul. You ran away like a wuss when they asked you what you thought about Trumps clear pro American comments.

If you call Rand Pauls office there is more proof he is a wuss. They used to answer the call. Now no matter when you call it says they are to busy to answer the phone.

Rand Paul don't go away mad just go away.

Give 'em a break. Now he's on OUR side. And willing to take the heat that come with it.

I think there's going to be a learning curve for 98% of the Pubbies/conservatives who need to stand on principles. Maybe Paul IS inspired, and will encourage others to come forward. The media-barracudas have been savage in their attacks lately.

You're kidding, right?

Here's a great way of discerning who is right; Examine who is taking most of the heat from Yahoo News, Karl Rove, and MSNBC. THAT is the best candidate.

By that criteria it's either Cruz OR Trump.

I was just remarking that your habit is to always look for some conspiratorial element, visible only to the few truly aware among us like yourself. Then berate the rest of us as blind fools when we don't agree with your interpretation of events.

Thanks for answering the bell and opening up on this subject.

Yes, addressing "conspiratorial elements" are admittedly my first general "instinct" these days. For good reason. Few things are what they seem these days.

With respect to that Lufthansa pilot and crash and our respective speculation -- my instinct as you recall was that he crashed the passenger plane because he was a Muslim. I was wrong. He crashed it because he was a self-loathing homosexual. The point, MY point was....the media refused to address and report the REAL story. And still haven't. Because it doesn't serve their agenda.

In this particular case of this flag that Red displayed ("...my first instinct (without noting it was you) was to look for and find the hidden perverted image or message within it"), the Left's artisans have frequently taken to hiding or masking subversive messages, symbols and subliminal images in many of their (at first glance) trademarks, logos, and flags. This was a possibility in this case...until I noted the family theme.

...[You see] Conspiratorial element[s], visible only to the few truly aware among us like yourself. Then berate the rest of us as blind fools when we don't agree with your interpretation of events.

Yes, I DO in fact "see" many "conspiratorial elements" that others do not see. Guilty as charged. Am I wrong at times? Of course.

"Berated" YOU? I wouldn't put it that way. I also wouldn't characterize YOU as "berating" *me* for refusing to accept the "official report." However, I *do* believe it IS "foolish" for anyone to believe initial or subsequent government or media reports by default. I also do not discount alternative media reports as a source of truth -- or else then what and who are we left with as sources of "truth"? CNN? HuffPo? NBC? The NYT? Media Matters??

All opinion here at this forum or FR is obviously a matter of personal perspective, introspection, and speculation -- with a healthy dose of dot-connecting. I think opposing views are a healthy exercise for both sides. JR unfortunately didn't seem to agree back when many of the banned...were banned.

I'm just as insulted by those who automatically discount narratives other than the "official/MSM media version as much as you are insulted by the outlier speculation and refusal of people by me to accept "Official Reports." The reason is simple: We have been more typically and routinely lied to by government sources and media who have proven to have colluded on perpetrating far too many lies in the name of political expediency as well as a subversive agenda.

ALL these guys are posturing....and playing it safe. Taking these kinds of "no-holds-barred" position against the illegal invasion now risks the media wrath. Who'd have thunk??

Politically, Paul has more to lose. Frankly, that he's piggybacked Trumps position demonstrates more balls and principle than the rest of these feckless losers. Still, no other pols but Cruz and now Paul have backed Trump's point and message.

NO politician in either party has been able to launch a full spread of torpedoes at full speed without considering their past support machination. This is what made Perot so dangerous a threat to the establishment parties.

Yes, I also love Trump's method to his madness. I only hope he doesn't take his foot off the gas pedal. The further he stays in this, the more damage he's doing to a bunch of lying memes and narratives we've endured since...9/11. Just wait till Trump goes after the "Religion of Peace."

Qatar actually gave him a good opportunity, through their propaganda organ Al Jazeera.

Al Jazeera is controlled by the government of Qatar, which is ruled over by an Islamist Emir. America's ruling class loves to use Americans as the blue eyed slaves of the corrupt Persian Gulf monarchs. If Qatar's bacon ever needed to be pulled from the fire, RINO's like Graham, McCain and Rubio would be screaming how Qatar was the front line of freedom. And over in Freeperstan they'd be eating it up.

I agree with him on more then that.

I believe him to be telling the truth on that one.

You can tell because it is part of his political philosophy.

My main problem with him is he isn't outspoken enough on social issues.
