Police and Feds Set Tone for Chronicle Attack of Sanctuary Ordinance Wednesday, August 13, 2008 : Carelessly referencing vague sources and leading with off the cuff remarks by law enforcement, the San Francisco Chronicle and reporter Jaxon Van Derbeken have published a series of damaging articles about juvenile immigrant offenders and the city's sanctuary ordinance.

Well, it was a hearing - long due - and one that should be recorded and remembered - by those that care about humanity - and hu...
