The Rule of Law

The massive immigration legislation in congress failed. It failed because the people rose up and protested. This usally doesn't work, but this time it did. Why?

The people are slowly realizing that our government (whether national, state or local) is not into enforcing the law or at least, being very selective about which laws they enforce.

Take for example the term "Sanctuary Cities". What we are saying here is in this city we will not enforce this law. Selective.

Lets go to the congress and this immigration legislation. We have laws on the books that are ignored, not enforced or with a wink and a nod are worthless. We are on to them.

With a law on the books that is not enforced and the illegal immigrants know it.... So let's make a new law that will be ignored and not enforced.

Essentially what they are saying.... this is illegal, there a lot of people that are illegal, so let's make it legal to be illegal.... therefore we solve the problem.

A bad road to go down. It undermines everything that we have held dear.... and have made this country what it is. This great nation is crumbling, thanks to our elected leaders.
