Outrageous claims by illegals

civil rights and public health organizations, unions, illegal immigrants and others - argued in Thursday's 20-page request that they face "irreparable injury" if the law remains in place. That includes the threat of arrest, harm to their organizations, difficulty reaching even basic agreements with businesses and housing providers, and the potential loss of basic municipal services such as water....Archbishop Thomas J. Rodi of Mobile and Bishop Robert J. Baker, ..."Most importantly the court enjoined a key part of the statute that made it illegal to conceal, transport, harbor, or encourage an illegal immigrant to stay in Alabama," they wrote. "This is the part of the law that would have criminalized many of our ministries.

"Most importantly the court enjoined a key part of the statute that made it illegal to conceal, transport, harbor, or encourage an illegal immigrant to stay in Alabama," they wrote. "This is the part of the law that would have criminalized many of our ministries."

Perhaps someone can explain how the Alabama law differs from the current Federal law.

Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324(a) defines several distinct offenses related to aliens. Subsection 1324(a)(1)(i)-(v) prohibits alien smuggling, domestic transportation of unauthorized aliens, concealing or harboring unauthorized aliens, encouraging or inducing unauthorized aliens to enter the United States, and engaging in a conspiracy or aiding and abetting any of the preceding acts. Subsection 1324(a)(2) prohibits bringing or attempting to bring unauthorized aliens to the United States in any manner whatsoever, even at a designated port of entry. Subsection 1324(a)(3).

So I guess these ministries think they should be able to function outside of our immigration laws? Where in God's laws does it say it's ok to harbor, aid and abet criminals?

No, the judge ruled against it, which is why I’m asking for someone to explain the difference.

Has anyone sued the federal government for not doing this job? I wonder if you can..of course good luck with that.

You can't sue the government.

If you could there would be hundreds to thousands of lawsuits
