Alianza Communitaria

Alianza Communitaria condemned the 115 arrests made mainly in the northern part of San Diego County by I.C.E. last week. Who or what is Alianza Communitaria and do they have a legitimate beef?
Alianza Communitaria is an organization based in the North County of San Diego that monitors immigration enforcement and sends text alerts about confirmed activity. Are some of their concerns legitimate? I say, “yes!” . . . but read on.
During that same three day span among the 115 individuals arrested on suspicion of violating federal immigration laws, there were 50 convicted criminals including :
– -A 43-year-old Mexican national and Oceanside gang member who had previously been removed from the United States four times and has been convicted for various crimes, including grand theft, possessing a controlled substance for sale and driving while intoxicated.
— A 55-year-old citizen of Kazakhstan who is wanted by authorities in his home country for alleged tax evasion and embezzlement.
— A 52-year-old Mexican national sentenced to 30 months in federal prison in 2009 after being convicted of illegal re-entry after deportation. He has three criminal convictions for spousal abuse, including battery, inflicting injury and threatening to terrorize, was ordered removed by an immigration judge in 1998 and has been deported on 10 prior occasions.

Do those who live in North County object to the arrests of individuals like the three mentioned above? Probably not.
Do the Hispanics who live in North County object to the arrests of these three individuals? Probably not, unless they are relatives.
Does Alianza Communitaria object? Impossible to know. Is seems that Alianza Communitaria is upset with I.C.E. and objects to the arrests of innocent people caught up in this sweep. Innocent people who just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Innocent people who were going to work or taking their children to school. (Never mind that these “innocent” individuals are in this country illegally.)
What is the position of I.C.E.?
“This week’s operation targeted public-safety threats, such as convicted criminal aliens, individuals with final orders of removal, those who illegally re-entered the country after being removed and individuals who have otherwise violated our nation’s immigration law,” said Greg Archambeault, field office director for ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations in San Diego.

The way I interpret this situation is the following:
I.C.E. Is doing its job and some unfortunate “innocents” were caught up in the sweep. I.C.E. is forced to conduct these sweeps, in part, because convicted criminals are “protected” by the policies of the Sanctuary State of California.
California is a sanctuary state because of the Democratic politicians who run the state.

If Alianza Communitaria wants to look out for these “innocents,” it should direct its anger and its protests against the Democratic politicians who are in effect responsible for the Sanctuary State policies and the consequent arrests of these “innocents.”
So does Alianza Communitaria have a legitimate beef? In a way, “yes” . . . however they should be upset with those politicians who are ultimately responsible.
This is just another example of Democrats making policy that hurts those whom they are supposedly trying to help!
