JV has lived in the US of A for 20 years, yet still needs an interpreter. Think about that for a moment. 20 years. 240 months. 1040 weeks. 7,300 days and still no speeka da inglish.
The churches are breaking the law by abetting felons. I hope any supporter of the church that is anti illegal immigration will let the leaders know that they disapprove. The leaders need to be held accountable for any crimes they commit.
How ####ty a country is Mexico that these people fear going there to live?
adios

Jeanette Vizguerra walked into a Colorado church on Wednesday — and into the forefront of a possible clash between Donald Trump and sanctuary churches across the country.Vizguerra has lived in the U.S. since 1997. She has four children, three of them born here. Vizguerra was due to check in with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Instead, she took sanctuary inside the First Unitarian Society of Denver.
"I did not make this decision lightly," Vizguerra said through an interpreter during a news conference at the church. "I was thinking about it for weeks. But I think that I made the right decision in coming here, instead of going to the immigration office today."
Vizguerra may be the first immigrant to seek sanctuary in a church since the Trump administration took office, but she likely won't be the last. Across the country, dozens of churches and other faith communities say they're preparing to offer sanctuary to immigrants who are in the country illegally.
Vizguerra pleaded guilty to using a fake ID in order to work in 2009. ICE officials say they've already granted her six stays of removal, and declined to issue another. That's when Vizguerra sought refuge in the church rather than face deportation to Mexico.
