Four women who tried to help migrants by leaving food and water in the Arizona desert have been found guilty of entering a national wildlife refuge without a permit.
The four women were volunteers at No More Deaths, a group that seeks to end the deaths of undocumented immigrants crossing the desert near the Mexican/US border. The Arizona-Mexico border specifically is known for the number of human remains recovered there each year.
Another volunteer with No More Deaths, Catherine Gaffney, criticised the ruling, saying:
"If giving water to someone dying of thirst is illegal, what humanity is left in the law of this country?"
It would be great if just 1 billion of that demand for the wall could go to identification and punishment of employers hiring illegals.
I keep seeing the illegals described as 'invaders.' If so, then why arent we focusing on employers for treason? Or at least aiding and abetting? Or accomplices?

This is the underground railroad all over again. Somebody's bleeding green.

Incouraging, aiding and abetting a crime is illegal.

For most of my life, I've known that Americans as a group have fallen so hard for their self-mythologizing that they generally don't bother asking that question. They have gotten far too comfortable in themselves.
One of many examples, the notion of how wonderfully open and free our country is because of our constitution. Take a closer and honest look at the way the criminal court system works, and you see that the constitution is only worth as much as the amount of money either you have or the state will allocate to your defense. Even then, an appellate court can always defeat your argument by lying about a key fact at trial or lying about the argument made. Hell, I saw one colleague's case where the win-or-lose difference came down to whether the claim was made under 5th Amd right to counsel or the 6th Amd.
The brief literally said at the outset of the argument that it is crucial to understand that the argument is made explicitly and only under the 6th Amd. right. The Court's opinion addressed that argument by saying in its decision "it is important to note the defendant's claim is based on the 5th Amd. right to counsel". They straight-up lied, refused to correct it, and the poor black man had to eat it.
Well, ok, beyond our self-mythologizing, we've also gotten ridiculously selfish as a group. As long as we've got ours, everyone else can go **** themselves with freedoms. People find it a lot easier to simply assume that cops are purely good except the ones who accidentally film themselves being bad, therefore assume that every criminal defendant is guilty despite paying homage to "the constitution", and wanting to provide the absolute minimum for public defense. Just one of many many examples of the studied inhumanity of law in America.
Entering a national wildlife refuge without a permit? Apparently some of the federal government is still functioning.
Odd you don't see it that way when Individual-1 is doing the aiding and abetting.

We all know why that is. Trump and his buddies hire them, and pay a fee to both political parties to maintain access to the hiring pool.
Along with santuary cities and states.
Let's not forget that, for the most part, they contribute to accelerating favorable demographic changes and their US born offspring are instant US citizens.
You don't believe in hell, do you?
it starts with the employers and us wanting cheaper labor....
That was not the charges....

The sanctuaries are illegal.
