Am I a bad person for knowing multiple undocumented immigrants, and not reporting them?

Question

You are not a bad person for choosing to have some empathy. And also, reporting undocumented migrants doesn’t make you a good person. Back in my home country we have a lot of undocumented migrants, and they work like hell under worse conditions than legal migrants and locals, alongside with no insurance or anything that could back them up if they fall ill and unable to work. They risked everything to come to the country for a better life for them and their children, and they took jobs noone want to work in due to shitty pay. i don’t see why we should make life shittier for them as they already have gone through enough.

Well, when they get busted and you happen to be with them at the time, you are and accessory to a crime.

no. you aren't part of the political executive banch. it's not your job to do that. so you doing that, would make you a massive snitch in my opinion. like you can disagree with illegals entering the country and at the same time not go out of your way to personally mess up some individuals life. cause let's face it: whoever enters the country illegally probably didn't have better options than that.

Really not your problem unless you want unwanted trouble because who knows they may be working in the cartel and you will be in a cemetery in a matter of days. Long story short let the Authorities handle it.

If they’re criminals and/or taking state benefits instead of contributing, then yes. We have enough homegrown criminals and deadbeats. It’s just plain stoopid to import more.

I tend to think they are better off being reported and sorting it all out than hiding in fear, but I don't know. not sure. I see these people around struggling and what good is that?

"Loose lips sink ships". If they're not behaving like criminals and actually contributing to society, why report them to a government RUN by criminals trying to destroy your own society? Think about it for a minute.

If you live in the UK, you will probably be arrested and referred to a counter 'far-right' agency for reporting them...

Maybe_Maybe_not · Answer

Yes, you are, according to any moral authority requesting you to help immigration services. In all other cases, you're not.

YES!! You're ANTI-American!!! I'd even guess that if they found out, they'd arrest you, too, for complacency or harbouring a criminal!! How badly do you wanna go to jail?

Not your business, tbh. They might be going through their papers as we speak.

@nicholas1302 Not from my POV, you are NOT a bad person.

You're a good person because you aren't the 2026 equivalent of the Nazi era "good Germans" who silently watched their Jewish neighbours hauled off to the gas chambers

They are “undocumented” because they are in the U. S. illegally. Try going into Canada as an “undocumented American” and see what happens, or any other country. We have a right to enforce our borders the same as any other country.

SaoirseS · Answer

Nope, you're not.

No, that is up to law officials to handle. Just as long as you don't hide them.
