As a sanctuary city, Denver sides with illegal immigrants over citizens

In August, the Denver City Council proposed an ordinance to reduce its cooperation with the Department of Homeland Security to bolster its bona fides as a “sanctuary city.” Denver’s latest progressive hectoring, prideful virtue signaling, and puerile chest-thumping is icing on the cake.

By whatever delineating characteristics are applied—there is no legal definition—Denver has been a sanctuary city for about 20 years. Soon it will be held accountable for its irresponsible conduct, either by the Trump administration or by a growing legion of crime victims.
