advise lawbreakers that while their souls are never disdained their bodies better shape up

And, I suspect, that is what should occur in the confessional, at least. Enforcing the law is not the responsibility of the Church and it is not for the Church to be directed by outside individuals who are miffed. The Catholic Church also has in its congregation practicing felons and Congressmen from Massachusetts. Would you ban the Church from ministering to people of whom you disapprove? Silly question. Obviously you would, at least for certain categories. Remember these people, by the act of wetbackery are not even felons. Their crime is defined in the law is misdemeanor, however reprehensible that is to you and me.

Unlawful REENTRY is a felony. Aiding and abetting illegal aliens is a felony. Identity theft and tax fraud are felonies.
