Wow! That sure was a fast settlement! Why was that?
Well, it seems the family was suing for $50 million and no matter what the mayor says, I think the city saw that it could be a lot worse for them and cut a quick deal.
There is one strange part of the arrangement that allows anti-gun advocates to reap some of the ‘reward.’

Pew: Dying Cities Need More Refugees/Immigrants
Editor: I’m going to be gone for a few days, so trying to get a couple of posts up this morning for you before I dash!
Frankly I have never bought into this idea that we have to continue to import millions of people to America every year to prop up dying cities and the Chamber of Commerce.
Does anyone ever ask what the longterm costs are of ‘welcoming’ third world poverty to impoverished cities?
There is all this talk (as in this latest from Pew) about how they fill houses and apartments that would have otherwise been vacant, and that they supply low wage workers for global corporations (can you say BIG MEAT!).
But, what are the costs to the federal taxpayer as you will see obliquely mentioned in this latest prescription? And, what are the costs to our uniquely American culture?
Maybe dying cities are dying for a reason! Maybe we should let them die (the buggy whip analogy)!
But the assumption always is—-accckkk! We can’t let that happen!
So we have the Dems teamed up (these cities are all Democrat-run and “new Americans” vote for the D’s) with the big corporations and the Chamber of Commerce merchants begging for more refugees and immigrants of all strips!

Rochester Mayor Responds to Trump Suggestion that Border Jumpers be Sent to Sanctuary Cities
But we don’t have the housing and the resources to care for them, Mayor Lovely Warren said earlier this week!
Exactly!
And, she thinks America does (in some other city)?
The other day I mentioned an idea that apparently is being kicked around in the more-immigration-is-better crowd and that is to turn the asylum seekers (aka illegal aliens) over to refugee resettlement agencies for care.
But, of course, the kicker is that those phony-baloney non-profits are all living off the US taxpayer to begin with.
But what the heck, at least it isn’t the Rochester citizens carrying the burden, right Mayor Warren?

CNN has Hissy Fit! Trump Considered Releasing Illegal Aliens into Sanctuary Cities
Well, if they must be released where else should he release them? Wouldn’t Dems want them sent to ‘welcoming’ cities?
In probably the most blatant NIMBY move ever by the Open Borders pushers, CNN was aghast this morning at the idea that Trump would consider such an “inhumane” idea—using children and families as pawns in a political game is an outrage (they sniffed!).
(NIMBY you may recall stands for Not in My Backyard and is frequently used when some project citizens object to is proposed for their neighborhood.)
Below is CNN’s news, but it doesn’t do justice to the outrage expressed by the morning anchors. (Yes, I watch CNN every morning for a little while to see what ticks off the Libs on any given day!).
Trump pressured Nielsen to release detained immigrants into sanctuary cities at the behest of Stephen Miller they say.
The (now!) saintly Ms. Nielsen refused.

Utica, NY: Mugshots of those Arrested Will No Longer be Published
Regular readers know that I joke here about how little information is available when immigrants (aka new Americans) are arrested for a crime. Rarely do we learn the nationality or immigration status of the perp.
Ann Coulter has said you need a “secret decoder ring” to figure out the bare minimum when a ‘new American’ is involved in criminal activity, but sometimes the mugshot is helpful.
Unfortunately, in Utica, NY and probably all of the state of New York, those arrested are entitled to privacy say Democrat political leaders. And, we will have even less information!
By the way, longtime readers of my other blog, Refugee Resettlement Watch, will recognize Utica as it was an oft mentioned important resettlement city. The UN even featured it as the city that loves refugees. Go here for many stories about Utica.
