Even as Sen. Barack Obama found himself under fire from the Hillary Clinton campaign over what she called his “naive” intention to meet with leaders of countries hostile to the U.S., the presidential hopeful praised the recent court decision overturning one city’s attempt to protect itself from hostile foreigners filling their streets with drugs, crime and gangs as “a victory for all Americans.”
On Thursday, U.S. District Judge James Munley overturned Hazleton, Pa.’s “Illegal Immigration Relief Act” in a 206-page opinion that declared states and municipalities have no authority to stem illegal immigration.
As WND reported, Hazleton passed an ordinance July 13, 2006, to deter housing owners from renting to illegals in an effort to reduce the crime and drain on city services associated with a large influx of illegal immigrants.
Hazleton Mayor Louis J. Barletta, an immigrant’s grandson who pushed for the strict laws last summer after two illegals were charged in a fatal shooting, said he wanted to make his town of 30,000 “the toughest place on illegal immigrants in America.””What I’m doing here is protecting the legal taxpayer of any race,” he told the Washington Post. “And I will get rid of the illegal people. It’s this simple: They must leave.”
