The mayor of Denver Colorado has completely lost his mind, vowing to use police and civilians to block the deportation of illegal aliens.
The Gateway Pundit reported,
Democrat Mayor Mike Johnston of Denver, Colorado has declared war on President Trump’s efforts to enforce immigration policies.
Mayor Johnston has made it clear that he will go as far as using city police and local volunteers to physically prevent the deportation of illegal immigrants, including those with potential gang affiliations.
In a recent interview with Denverite, Johnston unapologetically declared his intention to turn Denver into a fortress of resistance against immigration enforcement, framing his actions as a moral crusade.
“We won’t change that, because those are one of our core values,” Johnston said, adding, “We’re not going to sell out those values to anyone. We’re not going to be bullied into changing them.”
“I think we are gonna continue to be a welcoming, open, big-hearted city that’s gonna stand by our values,” Johnston added.
Johnston’s approach, which includes using Denver’s police force and even mobilizing citizens to obstruct federal operations, has drawn comparisons to lawless sanctuary cities.
He boldly claimed that Denverites themselves would rise up to form a human barricade against federal authorities, invoking imagery of the infamous Tiananmen Square protests.
“More than us having [Denver Police] stationed at the county line to keep them out, you would have 50,000 Denverites there,” Johnston boasted, adding, “It’s like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right?” You’d have every one of those Highland moms who came out for the migrants. And you do not want to mess with them.”
Johnston’s remarks go further, suggesting that any federal attempt to enforce immigration law in Denver would require “invading” Colorado with out-of-state National Guard units.
“I do not believe that our governor is going to let them use our [Colorado] National Guard at the state level,” he said. “Unless they were planning on bringing national guards mobilized from Texas or Alabama to come invade Colorado, I don’t know where they would find the forces to begin to do that,” the crooked mayor said.
If this is not proof positive that Democrats are fighting for open borders, what would be? If only they would fight this hard to protect struggling Americans in need. Unfortunately, Denver is estimated to have nearly ten thousand homeless on the streets. In the eyes of the left, those Americans come last.
