Isn't "aiding and abetting" lawbreaking itself a crime?

State-of-the-art shoes aid migrants
By Amy Isackson
The World programme, San Diego
[Jewish Argentinian] artist Judi Werthein has walked smack into the
middle of this controversy.
She is hoping to leave her footprint with a special "crossing trainer"
she has designed to help illegal immigrants negotiate the sometimes
deadly terrain they encounter when crossing the border from Mexico to
the US.
Migrants waiting for dark to hop the border fence from Tijuana into
San Diego start calling out their shoe sizes when they see the boxes
in Werthein's arms.
People start emerging from their makeshift homes in rusted cars and
the cement channel that runs parallel to the border fence and drains
Tijuana's fetid run-off.
Some have been waiting for months in this no-man's land for their
chance to cross into San Diego.
"The shoe includes a compass, a flashlight because people cross at
night, and inside is included also some Tylenol painkillers because
many people get injured during crossing," Werthein says.

"A passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation . . . betrays [one nation] into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter . . .
"Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government.
"Nothing is more essential than that permanent, inveterate antipathies against particular nations and passionate attachments for others should be excluded."
-- President George Washington
