While I am an immigration "dove" by and large, I don't like localities


doing things that undermine federal immigration policies they don't like. Holds true of decisions by local sheriffs to put their own "tough on immigration" practices in place, like the famous case of Sheriff Joe. I don't like the patchwork on what I view as a national issue. Partly a foreign policy issue.

So if a sanctuary city arrests a guy for drunk driving, and refuses an ICE request to turn that person over, and then that person kills someone while driving drunk subsequently, I can see a case for liability against that city. I understand that Tom and Breitbart like to take spectacular, rare examples and make them seem commonplace, and I know that this is not a widespread problem. But it can happen, and I think that is a risk to which santuary cities could, and probably should, be held to account.
