As a libertarian, I see it as a local government acting in its own right. I view it just like I view Colorado's marijuana status compared to the federal government. Obviously, that should not get away from local authorities refusing to enforce the law against them shall they commit crimes. If an illegal immigrant were to commit a violent act, he/she should be either deported (preferably) or processed through the criminal justice system like everyone else. But as I understand it, it just prohibits local police from deporting and stopping people solely because of immigration status, so that shouldn't be an issue. Since I agree immigration is a national issue, it should be enforced by the federal government, and local governments should be able to enforce the law as they see fit. They're not freedom cities, but not terrible either just on this characteristic (though many of them that happen to be sanctuary are horrible).

If we had a secure border and a sane immigration system, we wouldn't have to talk about this. And that's the most important thing imo

A city that willingly becomes third world. A joke of a city.

Do you even know what this means? Calling cities with more illegal immigrants third world is outlandish and insulting to actual 'third-world' countries (though I don't use the term myself, as its outdated).
