Arizona: Four women convicted after leaving food and water in desert for migrants
A lot of weight upon that “after” there.
A federal judge has found four women guilty of entering a national wildlife refuge without a permit
That’s the misdemeanor – think £5 fine from the magistrates level of crime – they’ve been found guilty of.
These ladies are no better or worse than the Bundys in Malheur National Forest, but the difference in the media reaction is striking.
Principals, not principles.
Nitpicking myself for anybody searching on the internet, it’s actually Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, not a National Forest.
Presumably all the migrants will have permits when they collect the food and water.
I live near there – the western edge of the Cabeza Prieta Wildlife Refuge.
They got hit with three charges, each carries a $5000/6 months in jail max sentence.
What’s ridiculous is that at least one sentence – entering without a permit – could have been avoided as permits are *free* (granted, part of the refuge is closed for part of the year during wild sheep breeding season).
And they’re very serious about the ‘no vehicles off trail’.
This has being happening for years and under Obama the “gifts” were actively found & destroyed, but msm ignored.

I’ve encountered SJWs who equate helping illegal immigrants with those who helped escaped POWs in WWII
Not remotely similar – escaped POWs were returning to their home country, not invading another.
Don’t disagree with the rest of the post, but <pendantry>those POWs would generally have had to invade another country to have been captured in the first place…</pendantry>
@BiW
Military invaded another country after Gov’t declared War
Have any MENA Gov’ts declared War with UK/Europe?
Have any Central/South America Gov’ts declared War with USA?
Are the illegal immigrants military employees on duty?

If they’re military, they’re not in uniform which makes them spies, which is an instant against-the-wall shooting offence.
@ Bloke in Wales
Lots of British PoWs were in France/Belgium at the invitation of the French/Belgian government when they were captured. Very very few British soldiers were captured in Germany.
