A Listing Of Sanctuary Cities For Illegal Aliens To "Migrate" To

So you are an illegal alien (undocumented immigrant)/ (undocumented citizen)/ (undocumented Democrat), who lawlessly broke the laws of the United States, and you are feeling like a victim. No Worries! These sanctuary cities will give you amnesty, provide you with free services, food stamps, medical care and free housing. These cities are also filled with naive Americans who will be easy victims, for rapes, murders, home invasions, and muggings. They will pay you to victimize them and disease them! The good news is, they will not report or deport you when you commit crimes there, it is truly a gangsters paradise! Move to these cities, where you can be the wolf among sheep nay, lambs:

Sanctuary Cities, USA

Note: Cities that have rescind their sanctuary ordinances or resolutions will be in green text.
