The Los Angeles Police Department is hiring illegal border crossers with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals status and equipping them with guns to police American citizens in California.
In 2022, the Democrat legislature passed a law authorizing any of the hundreds of thousands of illegal border crossers, including DACA recipients, who obtain work authorization to join police forces across the state.
While some cities like Sacramento refused to hire illegal border crossers due to concerns about gun law violations, LAPD handed jobs and firearms to nearly a dozen DACA aliens.
Capt. Robin Petillo told CalMatters these illegal border crossers will "Possess department-issued firearms on and off duty." The department also plans to give jobs to illegally present foreigners who are currently in police training.
The Fifth Circuit Court Of Appeals ruled in 2017 that DACA does not exempt illegal border crossers from that gun law.
An exception in the 1968 law allows for illegal border crossers to possess guns "For the use of, the United States or any department or agency thereof or any State or any department, agency, or political subdivision thereof." That means this federal provision technically provides any local or state government office, even if they don't have a law like California's, to arm illegal border crossers.
Under President Joe Biden and Democrats, illegal border crossers aren't just getting jobs in local police departments, they are being rewarded for breaking U.S. laws with free transportation, shelter, and prepaid debit cards.
