The helpful folks at a Utah based organization called “Concerned Citizens for the United States” helpfully sent a list of 1300 alleged undocumented immigrants to media outlets, and various state and federal law enforcement agencies. Nothing like a little “vigilante” justice even if it smacks of McCarthyism and even a kind of terrorism.
Especially when it turns out that the folks are not necessarily illegal in any sense of the word.
Not to mention that the information released probably was obtained illegally:
I understand the frustration with illegal immigration, although I also think it is one of those issues where it just makes people feel good to blame the “brown man” for all the ills of the world. But I find this kind of behaviour beyond the pale, what a bunch of scum to take this route.
I see nothing wrong with concerned citizens reporting illegals to the relevant authorities, no more than I would have a problem with a person who reported that their neighbour was a law-breaker.
It is the duty of every good citizen to report illegals and other lawbreakers, and not turn a blind eye to their activities.
Never said that Europeans should be given a free ride (although, tbh, at this point, freedom of movement between the US and EU would not be troublsome in the least).
I think that’s a germane point in any discussion of illegal immigration. We don’t advertise our deep, abiding awesomeness - then everyone would want to live here.
The problem here is that at least some of the adults on the list and all of the children listed are not law-breakers and ‘Media Outlets’ are not relevant authorities.
It is ironic, though, that the people who compiled the list may have become law-breakers in the process. i hope someone reports all of them to the relevant authorities.
Dude, I’ll trade any day your drunken East European immigrants against our ““French”” car-burning, 400-word vocabulary, white-teenage-girl-raping, arab and black suburb youths.
