Truth be known, they are criminals if they have used or is using a counterfeit or stolen document to secure anything. It's the government officials who are violating federal immigration code by doing anything that would encourage an illegal alien's stay rather than seeking their prosecution/deportation; but then, you already know that....
I'd like to see the prosecution of Jim Hunt for doing just that.
I'm becoming increasingly convinced the United States is no longer a nation of law.
That and other things. I will never forget that he spent his entire term as Lieutenant Governor campaigning for governor. My tax dollars paid for him to do something other than campaign activities.
I posted that comment to see if anybody else knew about the little used provision in North Carolina law that allows the governor to declare an individual an outlaw. Once that declaration is made, citizens can shoot those outlaws on sight.
