Most who travel abroad are well aware of State Department travel warnings, which inform citizens about dangers related to crime and terrorism in other countries. But have you ever seen an advisory designed to warn criminals not to travel to rule-of-law states in our own country? That’s essentially what the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and other open border groups sought when they issued a travel warning to steer illegal-alien criminals away from Florida.
What has Florida done to deserve this rebuke? The state legislature is considering two anti-sanctuary bills -- Senate Bill 168 and House Bill 527 -- that would prohibit cities from adopting illegal-alien sanctuary practices and ensure that police do not release criminal aliens to prey on Florida communities. ACLU Florida and the others determined a warning was necessary because the bills, if passed, would lead to the “increased likelihood of racial profiling, unjust detention, and possible deportation.â€
