[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 4372826, member: 12952"] Calling all illegals the place you need to move to is Cambridge Ma. [B]CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — [/B]It’s the law that you need a license to drive. But, if you’re undocumented and driving without a license in Cambridge, police have been advised not to arrest you for that. It’s all part of a new law that passed unanimously in the city, which encourages police to summons unlicensed drivers instead of arresting them. The procedure has already been practiced for a while, but city leaders said they felt compelled to officially make it a law, in fear of what could happen to immigration laws should President Trump be re-elected. Currently, Massachusetts requires drivers to show proof of legal status in order to obtain a driver’s license, a move that many have opposed saying it makes roads more dangerous. However, for Cambridge City Councilor Quinton Zondervan, the move is more of an effort to shield undocumented immigrants from the current federal government. From 2017 through 2019, there were 278 cases where Cambridge Police recommended the driver be charged with unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, 201 were handled with a summons while only 77 were handled via arrest. A police spokesperson says the arrests likely involved additional charges and possibly outstanding warrants. If the driver has other legal troubles, then officers may arrest them. [/QUOTE]
