In Which I Offer Up Rare Praise for a Democrat Politician

Namely, Sheriff Sadie Darnell of Alachua County, Florida.

On the podcast earlier, I mentioned that I wish Gainesville, the city I live near, would become a sanctuary city. Serendipitously, I just saw a tweet from the anti-immigration-freedom propaganda outfit "Center for Immigration Studies," pointing to its map of sanctuary jurisdictions. Gainesville may not be a sanctuary city, but my county is a sanctuary county.

Jurisdiction: Alachua [County], Florida
Date Enacted: September 2015
Policy: Sheriff's Decision
Criteria For Honoring Detainer: Will not honor ICE detainer without a judicial order or criminal warrant.

Thank you, Sheriff Darnell!
