In the past 8 years I can't tell you the number of stories I posted just like this one.
Kathryn Steinle, 32, was shot and killed on a San Francisco pier in broad daylight by an illegal deported 5 times.
Call me callous but this sounds like a family to me who supported illegals and it came back to bite them on the ass. I can understand how they must feel about the loss of their daughter. But deported 5 times with seven felony convictions! Where's the outrage? San Francisco's 'sanctuary city' policy is what got her killed.
San Francisco resident Manuel Gabriel added this, "U.S. citizens also kill people," Gabriel said. "The issue shouldn't be whether or not he has documents. The question is why authorities would release someone who is not well mentally."
Listen Manuel, I don't give a shit if he's mentally ill or not, that's not our problem. The real issue is the complete failure of our government at the local and federal level to protect its citizens. He shouldn't have been here period. If our f-ing government did its job Kathryn Steinle would be alive today!
Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution
"The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."
There are upwards of 12 million illegals presently in the country. How many does it take to qualify as an invasion?
2. Because of his criminal record he was barred from owning a gun. The fact he had one in his possession tells you what a joke more stringent gun control laws are on the law abiding citizen. CA has some of the most strict gun control laws around. How did they protect Steinle? Lawmakers can't figure out... criminals don't follow rules.
3. And one more slap in the face. The American taxpayer, not the Mexican, is going to have to foot the bill to house this bastard for the next 20 or so years! He'll be in good company.
How does that cliché go again:
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but not their own facts.
From 1980 to 1999, the number of illegal aliens in federal and state prisons grew from 9,000 to 68,000. Today, criminal aliens account for about 30% of the inmates in federal prisons and 15-25% in many local jails.Incarceration costs to the taxpayers were estimated by the Justice Department in 2002 to be $891 million for federal prison inmates and $624 million for inmates in state prisons.
God only knows what it is now.
God only knows what it is now.
And this doesn't count all the other bennies for those not in jail.
CA is the state which loves "undocumented immigrants"above all others. This is their most wanted list.
Facts don't lie.
------------------------------------------------------------
The parents of a California woman killed in a seemingly random shooting at a San Francisco pier said Friday they are focused on healing and not the fact the man accused of shooting her has been deported five times.
Kathryn Steinle's father, Jim Steinle, told reporters he hopes justice reigns in the case against Francisco Sanchez,45.
"We're not dwelling on that," he said, referring to the fact that Sanchez could have been deported months ago. "That's not going to bring Kate back."
Kathryn Steinle was shot Wednesday evening as she walked with her father and a family friend at Pier 14, one of the top tourist attractions in the city. Police arrested Sanchez about an hour after the shooting of the 32-year-old San Francisco resident.
The San Francisco Gate Chronicle reported Sanchez told police he was trying to shoot sea lions, but ended up hitting Steinle instead.
Sanchez has seven felony convictions and has been deported five times to his native Mexico, most recently in 2009, federal officials said.
Steinle's mother Liz Sullivan, called her daughter's death "a terrible travesty."
"It would have been so much better, of course, if he (had been deported)," Sullivan told reporters. "Everybody is trying to put the political spin on it. But it happened, and there is no taking it back."
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement had turned Sanchez over to the authorities in San Francisco on March 26 on an outstanding drug warrant.
The Sheriff's Department released Sanchez on April 15 after the San Francisco district attorney's office declined to prosecute him for what authorities said was a decade-old marijuana possession count.
ICE spokeswoman Virginia Kice said the agency had issued a detainer for Sanchez, requesting notification of his release and that he stay in custody until immigration authorities could pick him up. The detainer was not honored, she said.
Freya Horne, counsel for the San Francisco Sheriff's Department, said Friday that federal detention requests are not sufficient to hold someone. Under the city's sanctuary ordinance, people in the country illegally aren't handed over to immigration officials unless there's a warrant for their arrest.
Local officials checked and found none. ICE could have issued an active warrant if it wanted the city to keep Sanchez jailed, Horne said.
On Saturday, a bouquet of sunflowers and another of red roses laid at a gate blocking access to Pier 14, a popular place for people who want to get a close-up view of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. Tourists, most unaware of the shooting, sat on nearby benches and on an art installation platform, soaking up the sun while others in U.S. flag T-shirts and hats walked by.
San Francisco resident Manuel Gabriel, 50, was taking a stroll with a friend when the pair stopped to look at the pier after hearing what happened on the news. "It's sad to hear someone so young lost their life in an act of insanity," said Gabriel, who said he came to San Francisco from El Salvador 25 years ago.
About the controversy surrounding the city's sanctuary ordinance, Gabriel said it's not a question of documents but of mental health.
"U.S. citizens also kill people," Gabriel said. "The issue shouldn't be whether or not he has documents. The question is why authorities would release someone who is not well mentally."
