Would you report your neighbor if he was running a meth lab, had a chop shop, selling drugs? These are all illegal activities. Love your neighbor doesn't include winking at their breaking the law.

Here is the conundrum, illegal entry into the country is currently only a misdemeanor, everything you described is a felony.

I'd report him if he was a sex offender; as to your other examples, certainly if he did something which bothered me, but I try to keep a distance from my neighbor so I probably wouldn't know that. I don't put being in an illegal status quite in the same ballpark of mens rea.
