Los Angeles Chooses Foreigners Over the 4th

LA cancels July 4th celebrations over ICE fears...because of course

A large part of Tom Homan’s ICE strategy seems to be to pull up a chair and park ICE in the state of California for a while. This is a very smart move, given that California houses at least a quarter of the nation’s illegals. I’d be willing to bet that number is closer to half.

Naturally, the progressive left has been screaming bloody murder. Our greasily-coiffed Governor claims federal law enforcement is not needed in our state. We can handle things ou….sorry…this is hard to write without laughing…we can HANDLE THINGS OURSELVES.

But of course, we can’t. This state is an unholy mess and as if to prove Homan’s point - right on time - California leaders continue to show whose side they’re on by cancelling multiple Independence Day celebrations across the southland.

From ABC7 News:

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Some Fourth of July celebrations across the Los Angeles area are being canceled or postponed over community fears following weeks of immigration enforcement raids across the region.

Among the impacted events is Los Angeles County's Gloria Molina Grand Park Summer Block Party.

Additionally, the L.A. County Department of Parks and Recreation announced that this year's East Los Angeles Rockin' 4th of July celebration was canceled in response to the recent ICE activity.

Officials also said it is postponing the Summer Movies & Concerts series, including at Schabarum Park.

These postponements and cancellations come amid others in recent days, including the cities of Bell Gardens and Cudahy and Los Angeles City Councilwoman Ysabel Jurado's District 14 -- all of which are majority Hispanic communities.

Well, golly gee whiz. Why would it matter that a majority Hispanic community in California celebrates July 4th, with or without ICE hanging around?

The only reason it would matter is if a large portion of that community is here illegally.

You know who isn’t canceling their “America, F*** Yeah!” plans? My cozy, beautiful southern suburb and many others around me. We have no fear of celebrating our nation’s birthday because this is our home. Everyone who is here belongs here. And don’t get me wrong…my neighborhood is packed with legal immigrants from all over the world - Brazil, India, China…there are just as many immigrants here as white people (and then there’s us…the lone black family).

Everyone who is here belongs here.

There is no fear of extolling the virtues of your home when you do indeed consider it your home and have the paperwork to prove it.

If Democrats were smarter (another thing I had trouble writing without laughing), they would be using the upcoming holiday to get out in the streets and show the patriotism and loyalty of these so-called immigrants. They’d have their flags out. They’d wear patriotic mask coverings and at the very least they could paint Americana on their bricks and molotov cocktails. They would prove the rest of us wrong by throwing the most patriotic, most American celebrations they could muster.

Instead, their instinct is to just cancel America’s birthday because people who don’t love our country enough to come here legally might be scared.

Whose side are they on?

I think a lot of Americans answered that question in November of 2024.

It is my sincere hope, and growing belief, that Californians will also answer that question next year when we get another shot at statewide elections.

God bless America.

If you’re too scared to be here, get the hell out.
