Denver Suburb Sues City Over Its Immigration Policies

The machine media has tried to hide the worst of the problems stemming from the Biden-Harris open borders (Plus!) policy. Stories about crime, rape, murder, and other mayhem, when reported, may leave out certain demographic details that would make that situation look worse. But what do you do when a guy speaking about a city outside Denver who is pissed about its immigration “policy” says this?

Officials from Denver’s surrounding areas have complained about migrants, and sometimes dangerous gang members, spreading out of the city. Officials in Aurora have said that members of Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan-based gang, are wreaking havoc on local communities.

“We currently have entire complexes under gang control — complexes where staff have been beaten up, they’ve been threatened, their families have been threatened [and] complexes where there are no staff left on the property,” Aurora City Council Member Danielle Jurinsky said last month. “These complexes are being run by this Tren de Aragua gang.”

“They start brokering apartments themselves when someone leaves out of fear or whatever. They go in and take pictures of the apartment themselves. Then, I’ve been told, within hours, a Venezuelan family moves in,” Jurinsky said.

In other words, yes, there are violent Venezuelan gangs in America, and they are annexing property. It will remain theirs (the property) until the military goes in to retake it—presumably ours. I doubt the locals have the resources. But until then, how does that affect life (and if you are scared for yours) the ability to sell your home and escape the Denver migrant virus? The taxes are high, the schools are woke, and you have to pay protection money to the local Venezuelan gang, or they might rob your home, rape your women, and conscript your children. On that last point, they will teach them Spanish and are not likely to convince your son his name is Clarice, and he should get his genitals cut off.

Castle Rock Town Councilmember Max Brooks introduced a motion during a September 3 meeting that would direct the town’s attorney to research legal recourse against Denver over a flood of migrants that have entered the city and spread out to surrounding suburbs. Other municipalities are considering joining Castle Rock in fighting Denver’s immigration policies, according to Brooks.

“This isn’t just a decision that Denver gets to make because it’s impacting the rest of the Front Range. So the idea is to join with other municipalities and say it’s time to stop,” Brooks told CBS News Colorado. “Our town attorney’s office has already had conversations with the county attorney with Douglas County, already had conversations with the city of Aurora, and also had conversations with the city of Parker.”

Castle Rock isn’t looking for money, by the way; they want Denver to change its policy because it doesn’t just affect Denver. That’s a ballsy move with some potential mission creep. If cities were held to account for the local, county, or statewide damage their politics do, what’s to stop towns and counties from suing them for everything else they do that f***s up the place?

Every rural county would be lining up, and they might want compensation.
