Yesterday, the seven commissioners of metro-Atlanta’s Fulton County capitulated to Georgia’s well-funded illegal alien lobby and voted 6-0 to urge Sheriff Ted Jackson to stifle cooperation with ICE Agents on enforcement of immigration laws.

In Georgia, County Sheriffs hold an independent constitutional office separate from the authority of the county commission. The resolution is not binding.

Approved today was agenda item14-0683: “Request approval of a Resolution urging the Fulton County Sheriff or the Sheriff’s Designee to implement a policy to decline detainer requests from the United States Department of Homeland Security Immigration and Customs Enforcement; to proceed with caution when presented with such detainer requests; and for other purposes.” (Garner/Edwards)

“Perhaps the most cowardly and treacherous of the seven anti-enforcement commissioners was Republican Liz Hausmann, who abstained from voting on the resolution that would help illegal aliens avoid capture by federal authorities if the sheriff were to comply with this idiocy” remarked DIS president D.A. King.

“These characters are part of why we call our state “Georgiafornia” said King, referring to the downhill slide of the world capital of illegal immigration, California. According to DHS, Georgia has more illegals than Arizona. In 2011, Georgia Governor Nathan Deal estimated that state taxpayers lost $2.4 billion each year to illegal immigration. Deal, now in a close race for re-election, has been largely silent on the topic since then.

King says “there is more involved than mindless, collaborating politicians and the Chamber of Commerce.”

“This idiocy is the work of the corporate-funded illegal alien lobby, including the ACLU and former MALDEF goon Jerry Gonzalez of the Jane Fonda-funded GALEO Inc.” King, explained. “The Georgia ACLU’s “Detention Watch Network” has long campaigned to convince local law enforcement agencies to ignore the indisputable public safety dangers of criminal illegal aliens. They have struggled to attempt to kill the highly successful 287 g program and demand an end to the practice of participating in ICE “holds” when the federal agency makes a detainer request on suspicious persons in local custody.”

Along with other extremist groups, the anti-borders ACLU is now distributing a state-wide letter seeking the support of legal professionals in pressuring law enforcement in Georgia to ignore public safety.

“Georgia has an ongoing unemployment crisis. Wages are stagnant. The Obama regime released 169 convicted-killer illegal aliens from deportation proceedings last year, seven of which had Georgia zip codes. The Fulton Commissioners are obviously not only unconcerned about their own poor people losing jobs and benefits to ‘victims of borders,’ but here we see their contempt for the safety and security of the very Americans who elected them – not to mention their own families” ended King.

Named for a sixteen year-old Woodstock, Georgia youth who lost his life to our unsecured borders and operated on donations, the Dustin Inman Society is pro-English language and opposed to too-high legal immigration levels, illegal immigration and illegal employment. King has assisted state lawmakers with immigration–related legislation since 2006.
