You've ducked the same simple question twice. You know what that means. That great void in your righteousness has sucked the speed right out of FR this morning.

Your spin is what is transparent.

Where within the following language of the law does it state that the MEANING and/or ENFORCEMENT, and/or INTENT, and/or VALIDITY of the following LAWS is dependent upon: 1) who it is that wants the law enforced (the messenger, i.e., [fill in blank] (...oh, it's Tancredo for you)); or 2) the NAME or PERSONALITY of the individual or group who committed the crime; or 3) whether or not the individual who wants a law enforced may be a hypocrite (as you claim Tancredo or, by transference, anybody who aligns themself with his cause), because that person may have broken that law himself; or 4) doesn't agree with the law as written:

Federal Law--Section 8 USC 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv)(b)(iii)

"A person (including a group of persons, business, organization, or local government) commits a federal felony when she or he: assists an illegal alien she/he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who lacks employment authorization, by transporting, sheltering, or assisting him or her to obtain employment, or encourages that illegal alien to remain in the U.S. by referring him or her to an employer or by acting as employer or agent for an employer in any way, or knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions."

ILLEGAL HIRING: Section 1324a states:

"Any person who knowingly hires/harbors/transports any illegal alien is guilty of a felony punishable by 10 years jail + $2000 fine per illegal alien + forfeiture of the vehicle or property used to commit the crime".

In the same vein, if you yourself have broken a law and know of others who have, where within our legal system is there imposed the restriction of speech, the requirement to remain silent, on the very law that individual may have been guilty of breaking themself, or a restriction from their ability to denounce the criminal acts of others who willingly break that same law?

Where within our legal system does it state that an individual who may have once broken a law should and must not only continue committing those acts of lawbreaking, but encourage and promote others to do likewise?

Breaking the law is breaking the law, regardless of persons, personalities, identities, excuses, or justifications. That you wish to make excuses and justify lawbreaking because you dislike the messenger is irrelevant and does not invalidate the meaning, intent, or validity of the law. Likewise, as I have repeatedly stated, what my opinion is of the messenger is irrelevant, as it also does not change the meaning, intent, or validity of the law.

All that copy/paste and still no answer. Typical.
