The
Declaration of Independence established the basic idea that the
government of the nation must be made up of elected legislators who
answer to the will of the people. But in recent years the Democrat Party
of the United States, and specifically President Obama, have made a
willful effort to enact laws and policies without the consent of the
people.
Democrats
are engaged in dismantling the legislative branches of the Federal and
state governments using two strategies. The first strategy is to refuse
to enforce existing legislation. The goal of this strategy is to undo
the legislation of the past, and by default, make actions legal that
were previously illegal. All laws require residents to either perform an
action, such as the law that mandates a drivers license to operate an
automobile on public streets; or to refrain from an action, such as the
laws that require drivers not to exceed a posted speed limit.
There
are always some people who, for various reasons, want to avoid
complying with the law. But if the law is never enforced, or worse, if
public officials go on television and proclaim that the law will not be
enforced, then there is no reason for the majority of people to obey the
law.
At
some point if laws are not enforced then the original intent of the
legislators, and therefore the people they represented, is nullified. In
effect, a law is amended or repealed without the consent of the
people.
The
most prominent area where laws are repealed through lack of enforcement
is in the issue of Federal immigration law enforcement. Democrats have
used their non-enforcement strategy to repeal immigration law.
It
is fair to characterize this action as perpetrated primarily through
the Democrat Party, since their officials have taken the most drastic,
and illegal, actions to nullify immigration law. For example, in 1979
the City of Los Angeles issued Special Order 40. This order, issued by
the police department, clearly stated that it will not play any role in
the enforcement of Federal immigration law. To this day the order
remains in effect
.
Interfering
with Immigration enforcement is a violation of the 1996 Immigration
Act. It is also a violation of law for a police chief to openly disobey
laws that are on the books. Nothing is done since promoting the movement
of illegal immigrants is obviously a high priority on the Democrat
Party’s national agenda.
