That pendulum swings in two directions as far as divide goes. Total lack of concession by both sides is the killer in the crowd.

If the Feds step in and remove aid due to Sanctuary Cities doesn't that also lend itself to also dropping funding due to any legal matter where a state is out of compliance with federal law? Could become a slippery slope. For example let's say the executive branch declares through executive order some inane federal law that states are expected to adopt or face loss of federal funding in certain areas of state budget. Sounds almost dictatorial considering there could be a majority of a certain leaning group on the SCOTUS. You set legal precedent based on Sanctuary Cities and what else could follow?

I think the idea of harboring criminals via "sanctuary" is beyond ridiculous. But the law has to be written to protect the rights of those it is intent on protecting with out opening a door to future violations of our rights as citizens.
