Yep. This was clear to me the second “sanctuary cities” decided they would flout the Constitution.

Genuine question: what part of the Constitution are they flouting?

Surely they don't mean the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 10th amendments, or the Comity Clause. Maybe there is another amendment that says ICE can kick in your door if they saw non-white people loitering?

I think you think you’re dunking on me, but I would genuinely like to understand the point you’re making. It will probably negate mine and I’m perfectly fine with that.

Some of violations of the second amendment, some with immigration law. later, before a row versus Wade was dismantled, disallowing abortions when they were federally permitted.

What second amendment violations? The other things don't sound like constitutional violations.

Generally, banning the right to carry. It's no more constitutional than to ban the right to free speech.

The first cities to be sanctuary cities violated Federal and usually state law by refusing to prosecute illegal immigrants. Illegal immigration is a federal crime, period.

We have a mechanism to overturn laws we don't like. That's not it.

What is the connection between banning the right to carry and illegal immigration?
