Immigration Sanctuary Hot Issue In National City

Last Updated:

Hundreds of protestors on both sides of the immigration issue packed National City for the second weekend in a row.

At issue: Mayor Nick Inzunza declaring his city a sanctuary for immigrants.

Inzunza said the proclamation is meant to create peace, but it could be putting National City in the front line of an immigration fight.

Inzunza signed the proclamation Thursday on the heels of a heated protest last weekend between the minuteman project and immigration supporters.

The title means city funds won't be used to enforce federal immigration laws.

Police officers from all over the county showed up in force to keep the peace between the minuteman project and immigrant supporters.

Despite signing the proclamation, Mayor Inzunza was not at Saturday's rally due to safety concerns.

"At issue: Mayor Nick Inzunza declaring his city a sanctuary for immigrants."

No. The right terminology refers to the city being a sanctuary for illegal aliens, not immigrants, which implies the right to be here under the law. Doesn't surprise me that these Left-wing crooks are also cowards...

If you click on the news link Brian provided there is a video also. This santuary city business is a big slap in the face to citizens. Our government has allowed lawbreakers in so if government officials don't respect our laws it does invite more lawbreakers. That make sense??? You know what I mean.

BEST WISHES FOR YOUR SUCCESS at NATIONAL CITY!

We had no choice here in Chicago, just decided in the dark of night back
in 1989. That's why we are fast becoming Little Mexico.
There are two sets of rules - one for hispanic's and one for everyone else.

If I had money to get their I'd be by your side - hate when a war gets
started without me. Been fighting here but no one wanted to listen but
now thanks to Numbers USA have found 5 others that are helping.
STUFFLEBEAM FOR GOVERNOR

Let's see what a google search digs up on "Hizzonner" Mayor Nick Inzunza:

http://www.sandiegometro.com/2003/mar/coverstory.html

...but Nick Inzunza has a police record, arrested in the lobby of the former Imperial Bank Building on B Street in Downtown San Diego for blocking access and trespassing during one of those obnoxious Justice for Janitors demonstrations that occasionally punctuate the din.

...Nick was removed to Castle Park High School for beating up a Saints teacher. He, for sure, ain’t no saint, but proved quite the scholar at universities in Mexico City, Brazil, Spain and SDSU. He’s had his nose broken four times in fights,...

...He still trains on weights three nights a week at the San Diego Athletic Club, one floor beneath the lobby where he was arrested for unruly picketing in 1994.

So, just don’t pick on him. Work with him. National City has a funny fighter in its corner....

...Mayor Nick Inzunza's committee to promote a public safety bond last year raised about $40,000 – much of which was used to pay family and friends for campaign work and to support a political ally running for the San Diego City Council.

Vowing not to fall prey to the "political whims of a misinformed politician", the police union in National City in San Diego County, California have said they will continue to follow state and federal law. Mayor Nick Inzunza wants to declare National City a "sanctuary city" for illegal aliens.

The cowardly Mayor, Nick Inzunza, decided not to show up to the first city council meeting where the police union was ready to confront him with a statement, though he was in his office earlier. He's a real big man. To add to it he also screwed his city council members by announcing his decision on the radio without consulting them. Then he ran away and hid while they took the flak.

Guess why the mayor, Nick Inzunza of National City wants it to be known as a sanctuary city?

...here is a list of his campaign contributers, they also like to have some cheap labor around...
Connect the dots.

Mayor declares SoCal city 'sanctuary' for illegal immigrants


Associated Press

NATIONAL CITY, Calif. - The mayor on Saturday declared this small city just a few miles from the Mexican border a "sanctuary" for illegal immigrants.

Mayor Nick Inzunza made the proclamation at City Hall as a few hundred supporters rallied on the sidewalk outside, said police Lt. Lanny Roark.

Backers were met by a smaller group of anti-illegal immigration protesters, including members of the Minutemen civilian border patrol group, Roark said.

The rallies were "loud and tumultuous" but peaceful, he said. There were no arrests.

As a result of the declaration, city funds will not be used to enforce federal immigration laws. The city already practices the policy, but Inzunza said he wanted to underscore that fact.

"The mayor is sending the message that migrants are welcome in the city, which is one of the most diverse in San Diego County," said Enrique Morones of the group Border Angels, who advocated for the proclamation. "We want the whole country to see that this is a pro-migrant gesture and it's just the beginning. We're pushing for this nationwide."

Other California cities have similarly named themselves sanctuaries, including Maywood, Pomona, Huntington Park and Coachella.

Inzunza irked some members of the city council when he announced his plans during a radio interview earlier this month. The council members were upset he didn't discuss the proclamation with them.

The mayor said he didn't need council approval since he's not enacting any new laws, only reaffirming the city's current practice.

The Minutemen denounced the mayor's decision and made a proclamation of their own.

"We proclaimed National City as an anti-sanctuary," said Jeff Schwilk, founder of the San Diego Minutemen. "We think our proclamation is more in line with the opinion of the people. We welcome all legal immigrants, but we're not in favor of any city being a sanctuary for illegals."
