In his post, Words Fail Me, Jay Tea had this to say about a recent Boston Globe Article:

They're being given clear and explicit instructions on how to thwart federal law enforcement officials.

In the title, I say "words fail me." But that's not quite true. Quite a few words come to mind.

Setting aside the profanities, I am left with the following:

Aiding and abetting criminals.

Accomplice after the fact.

Criminal conspiracy.

Racketeering-Influenced and Corrupt Organizations.

Harboring fugitives.

The thing that gets me the most infuriated, though, is that all these groups are calling themselves "immigrant rights activists." That's not true in the least. They have no use for legal immigrants; their energies are fully dedicated to illegal aliens.

That's not quite fair. They do have a use for legal immigrants; they can use them as cover, as "beards," for the illegal ones.

It's a gross insult to them, the welcome and valued guests of this country, and to us, the citizens of this country.

Here's a few more words that come to mind: hypocrisy and misinformation.

I'm not going to hash out the tired old 'pro-legal immigrant' talking point again.  Jay Tea needs to read Immigration Orange Lesson #3: 'Pro-Legal Immigrant' and Ignorant.

I will attack his slanderous comments though.  It's one thing to argue that informing migrants of their rights is morally wrong, it is completely another to suggest that doing so is a criminal act.  The last time I checked it wasn't illegal to inform people of their rights in the United States.

Another blogger that is up in arms about informing migrants of their rights exemplifies the problems with these viewpoints:

ACLU trains illegal immigrants how to use the law to resist immigration officials. Illegal immigrants cannot have standing in the US, and we need to quit pretending they do. Why is the ALCU working against Americans anyway?

For people like Jay Tea and this "libertarian" blogger, migrants are less than human.  When migrants die in ICE custody, it doesn't matter, because they've committed the unforgivable sin of striving for a better life.
