Top law firms unite to hamper immigration raids (Soros link)

Via this ( http://www.immigrationwatchdog.com/?p=5273 ) we learn that ( http://www.nbc11.com/news/14764402/detail.html?taf=bay ) attorneys from top law firms such as Dechert LLP, Wilson Sonsini, Skadden-Arps and Orrick, Herrington & Suttcliffe are forming a "task force" to prevent ICE supposedly over-stepping their bounds when conducting immigration raids. All told there are 60 lawyers from 14 firms, and they're doing it pro "bono". Says Andrew Thomases of Dechert:

"All individuals have constitutional rights, and we want to make sure the rights are not violated, and the government is not violating the Fourth or Fifth Amendment when doing searches and seizures."

For their part, ICE says they abide by the law. While it's hard to criticize those who want to defend the Constitution, I don't see those same lawyers rushing to the defense of citizens whose rights are affected by illegal immigration.

The coordinator of the effort is Mark Silverman from San Francisco's Immigrant Legal Resource Center, a group that's received funding from George Soros and which was last seen appearing at a Rep. Barbara Lee event.

Oh for pete's sake.....more of this same crap.

Well fine.....let the lawyers do whatever they feel they need to do. ICE will continue doing their job and in the end the rule of law will prevail.

I just hope these lawyers remember that they aren't immune to criminal charges.....such as obstructing justice......themselves and should they go too far there is always disbarrment for them to look forward to.

These lawyers graduated from law school, passed the bar, and yet still did not take to heart what it means to be a nation of laws.
