The latest controversy in New Haven has been Mayor Little John's brainstorm to provide ID cards to help enable ILLEGALS enjoy hassle free services.
If I recall correctly he proposed this foolish idea during his failed attempt to become Governor of Connecticut but backed off when he realized his big fish ideas were not widely accepted outside of his New Haven Pond.
Now he is whining because the Feds decided to have a little round up after the illegal ID program was approved 25-1 by the city aldermen.
I have a question - Any attorneys out there? My understanding of the law is not very sophisticated but I think there is something about "aiding and abetting" that sounds gray enough to lock up the mayor.
Follow me for a minute....
Assuming an ILLEGAL is a fugitive that the mayor is harboring within his city limits can he be charged? Mayor John Jr. is nothing more than a publicity hound. He has stood tall and defied federal immigration law, I say round him up with the next batch of illegals....
It is unfortunate that people striving for a better life wind up being pawns for political kings but the direction of this country has been deteriorating for decades. It is time to say enough is enough - Learn the language, get legal paperwork or get Deported.
you are so right about politicians using these people and the situation - frankly I am pretty sick of it - it is time we set the rules and stick to them - this back and forth stuff is for the birds

You make an interesting point..."...It is unfortunate that people striving for a better life wind up being pawns for political kings .."
Hopefully this will not carry forward to our own professional organizations, although I was told how to vote by that organization in the last election, and the person I was told to vote for had a reprehensible track record in the Senate.
