Merged Woman Killed by Illegal Immigrant in San Francisco

This is getting a lot of play, at the moment:

"The man accused of firing the deadly shot -- 45-year-old Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez -- is an undocumented immigrant, a repeat felon who has been deported five times to Mexico, according to immigration officials."
http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/03/us/san-francisco-killing-suspect-immigrant-deported/index.html

"U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said Sanchez was turned over to San Francisco authorities on March, and that the agency had asked for him to remain in custody until immigration authorities could pick him up. That request was not honored, ICE told The Associated Press."
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...einle-death-pier-14-shows-need-border-n386646

Trump was probably praying for something like this. In any case, he didn't waste any time exploiting it and scapegoating immigrants.

This story does beg a few valid questions. Namely, why the hell didn't San Francisco honor ICE's request to keep this guy in custody? And we've deported this guy five times already? Seriously? Is there a revolving door on the border? Is it that easy to come across? And on the 6th time coming here illegally, he [allegedly] shoots this poor girl. That makes us look incompetent. It fits in perfectly with the narrative that we essentially have an open border with mexico.

This is eerily similar to the Willie Horton incident that hurt Dukakis. The anti-immigration crowd are going to be all over this and Trump will surge in the polls.

Is SF a "sanctuary city"? Ya know, one of those towns that do not work with the Border Patrol to handle the illegals?
 
Deporting people, even criminals, seems like a waste of time and money, accomplishing nothing significant.
 
Trump doesn't have to pray for something like this to happen, it's fairly common already.

We won't know for sure regarding this instance for a while, but San Francisco's "Sanctuary City" status is most likely the reason the authorities were not cooperating with ICE. This isn't the first time they shielded a violent illegal alien from deportation who in turn went on to commit murder. At least there was only one victim this time instead of three like the last time.

Of course it is when they are welcomed back repeatedly without issue. I think keeping them from coming back is the problem in this case.
 
So....What are one's chances of being shot by an evil illegal immigrant as opposed to say...Being struck by a falling slug on New Year's Eve?

Any homicide is a tragedy, but there are many millions of "illegals" in this country who don't appear to be doing anything more illegal than mowing lawns and nailing shingles.
 
The media LOVES stories like this despite the fact this kind of crime is vanishingly rare. It ticks all the right boxes: attractive young WHITE LADY gunned down AT RANDOM by a swarthy immigrant IN PUBLIC.

Right, but instead of being "vanishingly rare" people are going to wonder why it's possible at all. And they're right to do so. It's ridiculous that someone illegally enters the country six times, has a record of seven felony offenses, and then isn't kept in custody like ICE requests.

That's a policy failure, not a statistical fluke.

When it comes to 'illegal border crossers' one is one too many. The only viable solution to all this is to have a controlled border.
 
I see Immigration is quick to deflect to S.F.

Were all 7 deportations from SF, or is there enough blame for six more towns?

Or should the blame lie squarely on the shoulders of the Border Patrol, who allowed him to come back, x7?

But it's the same complaint from their home country.

Just stop making babies. After hundreds of thousands of years of doing it, we can't seem to get the quality control right. Time to recognize we never will.

Not disagreeing, but wishing they would lean hard and move swiftly on the one's who commit violent crimes. And post their data in rapidlyaddressable form at entry points.
