An illegal alien gets intoxicated and decides to go for a drive in the vicinity of Rutgers University. He gets pulled over because police believe he’s driving under the influence. They ask for I.D. and the illegal complies and hands it over. Only it’s fake. After he committed those two crimes, police find out he’s also in the country illegally and report it to ICE. Then the liberals at Rutgers unleash hell because they believe their school is a “safe haven.” Check it out . . .
Rutgers profs fume over suspected illegal’s DUI arrest
Rutgers University professors complained to their school president after campus police arrested a suspected illegal alien for driving under the influence (DUI) and then allowed Immigration and Customs Enforcement to detain him.
More than 100 Rutgers faculty members penned a letter to the university’s president, Robert L. Barchi, expressing their displeasure with the treatment of a man named Luis Alberto Lopez , The Daily Targum reported. Signatories included history professor James Livingston, who, in a post about children playing at a restaurant he frequented, called them “little Caucasian assholes” “slid[ing] around the floor.”
Rutgers police approached Lopez’s vehicle on Sept. 29 for a suspected DUI. Upon being pulled over, Lopez presented police officers with fake identification documents. Rutgers policy dictates that the university reports any individual who is both arrested for a violent crime and has immigration complications to ICE.
Faculty signatories of the letter claim that Rutgers unfairly treated the suspected illegal immigrant by excessively charging him. They also assert that Barchi is violating his previous statement, in which he called Rutgers a “safe haven.”
Let’s see, Lopez was driving under the influence and provided the police with fake I.D., and according to https://www.thecollegefix.com/rutgers-u-faculty-protest-campus-cops-arrest-of-illegal-immigrant-communication-with-ice/ The College Fix, that’s precisely what he was charged with. Will someone with abilities to peer into the liberal mind and explain how it functions, please tell me exactly how that is excessive? I can’t figure it out.
“Any illusion that Rutgers is a place where individuals will not be targeted on the basis of immigration status is shattered once representatives of our community, entrusted with ensuring campus security, collaborate with ICE,” the faculty said. “We call upon you now to speak loudly and forcefully by issuing clear directives to the Rutgers University Police, in writing and shared with our entire community, that they are not to inquire about or report any individuals’ immigration status, and that they must not detain people for rendition to ICE. In this alarming moment, such a decisive statement is critical to ensuring that your stated commitment to our campus as a safe haven holds true.”
This is, once again, clearly a case of liberals valuing the lives of illegal aliens over those of American citizens. They want to make Rutgers a “safe haven.” Safe for drunken illegals to drive motor vehicles around the streets, with the potential to kill innocent legal residents. What if Lopez had run over one of the snowflakes attending Rutgers? How would Livingston and his cronies feel then?
“I think the current safe haven status of the university is messy, as it is unfair to undocumented immigrants, leaving them in legal limbo, and pushing the university to be at odds with federal agencies,” Rutgers freshman Matt Circonciso told Campus Reform.
Communication about the school’s “safe haven” status “is of the utmost importance, whether it be through public announcements or private channels directly to [the faculty signatories],” Circonciso added.
I don’t care what the school says, state policy dictates that suspects arrested for DWI are to be reported to ICE, regardless of what the school thinks. Further, this guy has been twice deported. According to ICE spokesman Emilio Dabul, “In 2008, Lopez was previously encountered by ICE on two occasions in Arizona and voluntarily returned to Mexico.” And he came back yet again. It’s long past time to put an end to “sanctuary” schools, states, and cities, and build the damn wall.
