Los Angeles (CNN)A hammer pounds away in the living room of a middle class home. A sanding machine smoothes the grain of the wood floor in the dining room.

But this home Pastor Ada Valiente is showing off in Los Angeles, with its refurbished floors, is no ordinary home. "It would be three families we host here," Valiente says. By "host," she means provide refuge to people who may be sought by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, known as ICE. The families staying here would be undocumented immigrants, fearing an ICE raid and possible deportation.

What is the point in illegals hiding?
= = =

The Lauded Underground Railroad moved slaves toward a better place.

These illegals are held static; will ferment in place.

I’m generally not in favor of asset forfeiture, but this looks like a good exception.

So then I giess it is perfectly okay to start something similar for gun related issues?

The right to bear arms is in the Constitution. The right to be here illegally is not.

The only way to show the absurdity of their argument is to come up with an equivalent issue.

Any house hiding illegals, especially if it’s been explicitly modified to do so, can be seized under asset forfeiture.

Yes, for about 9 months until they drop anchor. I'm sure the "Diary of Ana Franco" will be quite a page turner.

When the woman of the house is raped, they’ll stop harboring them, if they’re still alive to do so.

Since the residence is being used for criminal activity, wouldn’t it be subject to civil asset forfeiture.

Arrest those harboring these illegal alien invader felons, seize their homes, seize their assets, imprison them, exile them. What absolute soft-headed losers.

No need of executive order, harboring illegal aliens is already a federal crime.

ALL illegal aliens MUST break multiple laws DAILY to remain here illegally.
Illegal employment.
Fraudulent documents.
Illegally collecting benefits.
There are NO “law abiding” illegal aliens.
Why should we have to wait for illegal aliens to harm or kill Americans before they are removed?

So are aiding and abetting and conspiracy to harbor illegal aliens.

I think this is great! See how long these chumps want to foot the bill for all the illegals, not to mention what their guests might do while they are in these morons’ homes.

Pop some popcorn!
