- PaulDavisThe1st 4y agoI have absolutely zero doubt that there are many people in the USA who would agree that VISA should cut you off.
- homonculus1 4y agoYes...?
- jonathan-adly 4y agoOk - how about facilitating abortions in Texas? Selling imported insulin to diabetics?
- homonculus1 4y agoYes and yes
- Ekaros 4y agoIs that imported insulin un-patented and FDA approved?

- zo1 4y agoPeople answered you yes on all counts, and I agree. It's the law and if we want it to be different then we need to change it. Why complicate it anymore than that. Instead, this is us using extra legal and potentially illegal means to enact what we argue is change but is just propagating more chaos and unfairness all around.
- forgingahead 4y agoYes, plus you should be prosecuted for aiding and abetting. You make a mockery of the legal immigrants who have to painfully deal with the official system.
- sandworm101 4y ago>> charity that makes is easier for illegal migrants to find housing How is that illegal? Illegal immigrants may be in the country illegally, but that doesn't mean that everything they do while in the country is also illegal. We don't have outlawry anymore. Such concepts don't work in the modern world.
- carrotcarrot 4y agoYou're aiding them in breaking the law.
- sandworm101 4y agoSo should they be allowed to buy food? Should hospitals treat them? If a police officer stops them from being attacked, is that police officer helping them too? Is it a crime to invite an illegal immigrant over for dinner? As I said, we have abandoned outlawry. The crime is the illegal crossing of the boarder and/or the failure to leave when obligated. Everything else, one's day-to-day existence, are not separate crimes. Those days ended centuries ago.
- vkou 4y agoOnly if you're actively smuggling them into the country. It's the difference between selling a bag of rice to a killer for hire, and selling a gun to a killer for hire.
- trombone5000 4y ago> ... makes is easier for illegal migrants to find housing and avoid deportation. This is illegal Is that in fact illegal?
- carrotcarrot 4y agoVISA can do what it wants but this is morally reprehensible. Not really a good example when you're doing something that's way worse than porn.
- jessaustin 4y agoIf a joke is so dumb you feel like you should set up a new greenbean account to post it, why not improve HN by not making the joke at all?
