Baltimore Has an Obvious Problem. The Fix is Fairly Obvious Too.

“Baltimore County releases illegal immigrants charged with crimes despite federal requests,” declared a recent headline on the local FOX 45 news site.

It is a headline that evokes Captain Renault’s feigned surprise in Casablanca, “I’m shocked! Shocked to find that gambling is going on in here.”

For those who follow the immigration issue, there’s no shock or amazement whatsoever, just a familiar recognition of cause and effect due to Baltimore’s anti-detainer policies that discourage local police from cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). According to a Baltimore County executive order signed in 2017, and updated in 2018, “No Baltimore County Police Officer shall arrest, detain, or extend the stop or detention of an individual on the basis of a civil administrative warrant, a prior deportation order, any other document relating to a civil immigration violation, or an alleged violation of civil immigration laws.”

Consequently, most federal requests (detainers) to hold criminal aliens are not honored, thus those who have completed their local sentences are simply released back onto the streets – in many cases destined to reoffend.

At some point in the future it will be necessary in leftist/communist cities like this to revoke the notion of "home rule".

They'll have to be taken over and either ruled by a state commission (probably wouldn't help in Baltimore, considering the state), or perhaps some sort of military governance, backed by force.

Sigh.

It’s a sanctuary city.

Amongst other major problems.  It’s not going to change as long as we have black Dems as mayors and council.  The current is young and an illegitimate “father” who has the stink of druggie to him.
