Boston Mayor Marty Walsh is "deeply disturbed" by President Donald Trump's executive orders on immigration.Just a wild guess, but I suspect Trump's order is intended to apply to illegal immigrants.
Walsh held a press conference Wednesday following Trump's executive orders that will jumpstart the construction of a wall at the U.S.-Mexican border as well as crackdown on sanctuary cities.
Flanked by immigrants and first generation citizens who work for Boston, Walsh said the Trump administration is advancing the most destructive and un-American threats made during Trump's campaign for president. 28 percent of Boston residents are immigrants.
How many of those are legal immigrants, Marty?
"We will not back down from our values that make us who we are as a city," Walsh said. "We will fight for our residents, whether immigrant or not, and provide the best quality of life for all Bostonians. I will use all my power within lawful means to protect all Boston residents, even if that means using City Hall itself as a last resort."
Do everything legal to break the law. Why stop with legal, when you're breaking the law?
In regards to City Hall, Walsh went as far to say he will use City Hall as a place to shelter and protect those who don't feel safe.
And my very own home, too. C'mon in!
"I will never turn my back on those who are seeking a better life," Walsh said. "We will not be intimidated by the threat to federal funding. We have each other's backs, and we have the Constitution of the United States of America on our side."
Apparently, the Constitution applies to all Mexicans, as well.
