It’s about time someone grew a spine and did this.

Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona, in anticipation of tonight’s State of the Union speech by President Donald Trump, is ensuring that everyone present for the address is a legal resident of the United States.

Crazy, right? Actually enforcing U.S. law within the confines of the U.S. Capitol. Whoever thought of such a crazy notion?

Apparently Rep. Gosar has, along with every other sane American who thinks the rule of law means something. He’s asking Capitol Police and Attorney General Jeff Sessions to ensure that no illegal aliens attend a speech meant for legal residents of America.

Today, Congressman Paul Gosar contacted the U.S. Capitol Police, as well as Attorney General Jeff Sessions, asking they consider checking identification of all attending the State of the Union address and arresting any illegal aliens in attendance. — Rep.

Additionally, Congressman Gosar asked that they arrest those using fraudulent social security numbers and identification to pass through security. — Rep. Paul Gosar, DDS (@RepGosar) January 30, 2018

“Of all the places where the Rule of Law needs to be enforced, it should be in the hallowed halls of Congress. Any illegal aliens attempting to go through security, under any pretext of invitation or otherwise, should be arrested and deported,” said Congressman Gosar. — Rep. Paul Gosar, DDS (@RepGosar) January 30, 2018

Gosar’s proposal is, of course, eminently sensible. U.S. law should be enforced everywhere within U.S. borders, especially in the very place the laws are created.

But, obviously, that’s only what backwards neanderthals think, judging by the replies to Gosar’s announcement. Check out these vile responses:
