In a word: yes.

California decided it would be a Sanctuary State for illegal Mexicans, et al. Make no mitsake: mostly Mexicans. Kate Steinle can, of course, go straight to hell as evidenced by the San Francisco Superior Court’s 2017 verdict in her murderer’s case.

That said, a number of California (I call it Fornicalia because it screws up most everything it comes in touch with) cities and counties are beginning to push back against the State Sanctuary concept and are themselves joining in suits or policies disavowing same. From CityLab.com:

As California Protects Immigrants, Cities Revolt

by Sarah Holder

The Department of Justice is already suing California over its refusal to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement. Now, some small California cities are mounting an attack from within.

The federal government’s attack on California’s “sanctuary state” laws is growing angry, grassroots heads.

After California moved to prevent state and local law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration officials in October, Governor Jerry Brown and Attorney General Xavier Bacerra were met with swift retaliation from Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who sued them and the state, alleging that three of the state’s new laws (including Senate Bill 54) overstepped their rights as a state and violated the US Constitution’s Supremacy Clause. (It’s the same argument the Department of Justice makes in another suit it filed against California this week, over jurisdiction in sales of federal land.) But while California officials await their days in court, a new resistance is being mounted from within.

In March, the small city of Los Alamitos was the first to announce that they would put their commitment to federal law over state regulations, drafting an ordinance that would let them opt out of state-level sanctuary laws. Emboldened, other cities in Orange and San Diego Counties are drafting exemption ordinances of their own. They’re the conservative mirror to the wave of liberal sanctuary citieslike West Palm Beach, Fla., and Dallas County, Tex., that have pushed back against their conservative home state’s strict immigration enforcement.

Businesses in Fornicalia didn’t know whom to obey, conflicted between state and federal laws. They should never have been put into that position.

It was and is the State of California deciding which laws to obey and which to ignore. California simply declared itself a Sanctuary State.

On the heels of that decision comes a county in Illinois, making a declaration almost as monumental and equally abhorrent in the eyes of Leftists, Demorats and American Media Maggots everywhere. First, from the DailyCaller.com:

County Declares Sanctuary Status For Second Amendment Supporters, OUTRAGE Ensues

by Stephanie Hamill

An Illinois county recently declared sanctuary status — for gun owners. This is brilliant!

The Effingham County (Illinois) Board passed a resolution this week protecting their county from any laws from the state’s capital that might abridge the Second Amendment.

The ChicagoTribune.com weighed in on the matter:

A ‘sanctuary county’ in Illinois for paranoid gun owners? I’ll help you move!

by Rex Huppke

Great news! A south-central Illinois county is now a self-declared sanctuary for gun owners.

That’s right, officials in Effingham County — my favorite Illinois county that ends in “ham” — have decided they won’t accept any state laws that “unconstitutionally restrict the Second Amendment.” Granted, there are no state laws that do that, but such trivial matters were of no concern to the gun-positive County Board members who passed the resolution Monday on an 8-1 vote.

According to the Effingham Daily News, one resident spoke in support of the resolution and “argued that far more people die from tobacco and alcohol use than are killed by people who legally own guns.”

“We, as a society, need to stop thinking about things that don’t matter,” the man said.
