Feds may try to prosecute him again.
It gets better.
People who think that comparisons of this administration and its adherents to Nazi Germany are hyperbole are dangerously naive.
Europe is having the same kinda issues.
This is an activist but she is looking at a lot of time for pulling people out of the water.
Were the laws that these people are accused of breaking passed during this administration?
…only criminals will be humanitarians?
There should be opportunity for a grand compromise. Migrants are granted admittance once they have secured private funding and they and their descendants are prevented from securing transfer payments.
I listen to the NY Time’s “The Daily” podcast and this week they are going to different EU countries to talk about the surge of the far-right in politics. Today’s episode is in Italy and at the end, they talk about how a girl gave a thumbs up to the news that a migrant boat sank and over a hundred died. We are at a sad state of affairs when people are happy to hear of large groups of humans dying.
What does this mean?
And what does it have to do with the case at hand?
This means “punish immigrant’s children for having the moral failing of being born to an immigrant.”
Don’t know. Let’s say they were enacted previously. Were they prosecuted as zealously by previous administrations?
Not sure. I would hope that a person who thinks they ARE being prosecuted by this administration more zealously than previous administrations would have that information on hand.
I guess the OP did not consider that Scott Daniel Warren may be lying and was trying to harbor them.
I ain’t saying either way, but this:
seems to counter the defense argument somewhat.
I dunno. Maybe the Feds are lying. Wouldn’t be the first time. But it does seem a little odd that the man just happened to show up at a place where illegals went for assistance and just happened to have 3 days worth of food and water for 2 men with him.
Damn you ! That was MY line !
Every time someone talks about voting Christian values, I point to stuff like this. Jesus was very clear about how to treat those in need, especially travellers.
Laws that forbid moral behavior should never be enforced.
Why are their descendants to be second-class citizens based on what their forebears did or didn’t do? Do you advocate any other categories of people being punished for the wrong doings of a separate group of people?
Do you not see that this is morally wrong?
Wow.
I mean, I have effectively unlimited water from my tap at home, not to mention a variety of other beverages, and usually have enough food on hand to feed surprise guests for a day or two. Do I deserve to be prosecuted, too? Are we going to limit how much food people keep in their homes now?
We are not really talking about the moral behavior. Lets be clear on that.
If the man had given the immigrants food and water…AND called ICE…then he would be on the right side of the law.
The behavior that is forbidden is being part of a network that helps immigrants skirt immigration law.
Strawman.
If I read the article correctly, they didn’t come to his home. He took the supplies to them. And where he took the supplies was a known hub where illegals went for supplies.
Punishment? Anyone deprived of transfer payments is being punished?
The feds are technically within the boundaries of the law, but it’s a ridiculous application of the law, and it’s not really in the same spirit of simply protecting borders or controlling immigration. Prosecuting people like Warren is in the spirit of authoritarianism and racism.
