A self-described “humanitarian” group in Arizona has proudly declared that it is providing electronic location devices to smugglers who guide illegal aliens across the U.S. border.
The organization, Humane Borders, said it gave global positioning system, or GPS, devices to smugglers so the smugglers can summon emergency aid if they encounter problems while sneaking illegal aliens across dangerous areas along the border.
Outrageous! That’s deliberately aiding lawbreakers!
Smugglers of illegal immigrants are notorious for mistreating their “clients,” whom they charge high fees to lead into the United States. No one has any business making it easier for the smugglers to “do business.” That will only encourage them to bring more people across the perilous, remote desert areas along the border.
It is sadly true that some people die making that crossing. But genuine humanitarianism would not seek to encourage more border crossings.
