This shit has to stop
It's illegal to give someone a ride in your car now? WTF? :rollin
southern red-states are more racist and stupider than non-southern red-states.
Is there any agriculture in AL? :)
Then you wonder why we have overpopulated prisons...
Yet another shining example of small government conservatism.
Utah and Wyoming, maybe?
and another state is tired of dealing with shit skinned Mestizos, I wonder why?
Hiding behind a lame troll account, I wonder why?
That's OK, there are sanctuary cities across this nation that these people can relocate to. California has plenty of money to provide them social welfare.
Kind of genius, really. Deny/discourage education to children who aren't legal citizens, making it even more difficult that it would otherwise be for them to find success (or to meet the requirements of a legal path to citizenship), and in ten or so years they'll hopefully fulfill every negative stereotype the right has of illegal immigrants and will serve to make the argument for their own deportation.
The article says it's illegal to knowingly give an illegal immigrant a ride.
I think this is it (Alabama legislature, SB256):
Quote:
(3) Transport, or attempt to transport, or conspire to transport in this state an alien in furtherance of the illegal presence of the alien in the United States, knowingly, or in reckless disregard of the fact, that the alien has come to, entered, or remained in the United States in violation of federal law or any applicable state law. Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to prevent a bona fide religious organization from transporting persons to and from church functions.
Section 13. (a) It shall be unlawful for a person to do any of the following:
(1) Conceal, harbor, or shield or attempt to conceal, harbor, or shield or conspire to conceal, harbor, or shield an alien from detection in any place in this state, including any building or any means of transportation, if the person knows or reasonably should have known that the alien has come to, has entered, or remains in the United States in violation of federal law or any applicable state law.
(2) Encourage or induce an alien to come to or reside in this state if the person knows or recklessly disregards the fact that such coming to, entering, or residing in this state is or will be in violation of federal law or any applicable state law.
(3) Transport, or attempt to transport, or conspire to transport in this state an alien in furtherance of the illegal presence of the alien in the United States, knowingly, or in reckless disregard of the fact, that the alien has come to, entered, or remained in the United States in violation of federal law or any applicable state law. Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to prevent a bona fide religious organization from transporting persons to and from church functions. (This is an interesting exception)
(4) Enter into a rental agreement, as defined by Section 35-9A-141 of the Code of Alabama 1975, with an alien if the person knows or recklessly disregards the fact that the alien has come to, has entered, or remains in the United States in violation of federal law or any applicable state law.
(5) Otherwise knowingly facilitate or aid an alien unlawfully present in this state, including entering into commercial transactions with an unlawfully present alien. (Who even knows how broadly this can be interrpreted)
(b) Any person violating the provisions of this section is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor for each unlawfully present alien, the illegal presence of which in the United States and the State of Alabama, he or she is facilitating or is attempting to facilitate.
(c) A person violating the provisions of this section is guilty of a Class C felony when the violation involves 10 or more aliens, the illegal presence of which in the United States and the State of Alabama, he or she is facilitating or is attempting to facilitate.
(d) Notwithstanding any other law, a law enforcement agency may securely transport an alien whom the agency has received verification is unlawfully present in the United States and who is in the agency's custody to a state approved facility, to a federal facility in this state, or to any other point of transfer into federal custody that is outside the jurisdiction of the law enforcement agency. A law enforcement agency shall obtain judicial or executive authorization from the Governor before securely transporting an alien who is unlawfully present in the United States to a point of transfer that is outside this state.
(e) Notwithstanding any other law, any person acting in his or her official capacity as a first responder or protective services provider may harbor, shelter, move, or transport an unauthorized alien pursuant to state law.
Good law.
Apparently I could also be in a lot of trouble if I buy a watermelon from the back of a guy's truck.
If you know he's an illegal. And it's established you can use the standard banned methods (race, color, religion, accent, etc) to judge that, you have quite a bit of leeway if it's someone you've never seen before.
And it's a misdemeanor, so it'd probably be a small fine (and not worth pursuing on behalf of the state).
