French farmer’s trial puts rebel valley helping migrants in spotlight

The trial of a French farmer accused of helping migrants slip across the border from Italy, which opened in Nice on Wednesday, has drawn attention to residents of an Alpine valley who claim it is their civic duty to help those in need.

Cédric Herrou, 37, faces up to five years in prison, and 30,000 euros in fines, on charges of helping migrants to illegally enter France, and dwell and travel in the country.

Unapologetic about his actions, Herrou says he is merely doing his civic duty by providing food, shelter and other aid to migrants fleeing war and poverty – and making up for the shortcomings of public authorities.

I don't know what the laws are? No problem feeding and sheltering someone, but when they are eating you call the authorities and inform them. And no smuggling. Minors could be smuggled out after being snatched from parents or guardians. Authorities have language interpreters and can interview these people.

typical behaviour of selfish leftists who judge their own 'great' moral principles are above the interest of the collective, they don't care if their 'moral' actions are good or bad to societies where they're living in.

those leftists are a plague worse than illegal immigrants and false refugees.
