Do you truely believe that we should not obey the laws of this nation?
see, here's the thing - how is it a law when there is no penalty or punishment?

If he is already here illegally, then the 'penalty' for breaking the law is: you get deported

if he had turned himself in: you get deported

If I had been in his situation I would have done the same thing. To quote Dylan "When you aint got nothing, you got nothing to lose".
