If you happened upon a person you thought might be an "illegal immigrant", & they needed lifesaving help, what would you do??

I would help. The word HELP implies a lot of different things however. Where I come from it wasn't unusual to help a human outside the pack, in fact it was a pretty common and a well respected practice. However in this compassionate act much was expected in return. Not out of selfishness but out of human integrity. Honor and respect among "HUMANS" was the naturally expected occurrence. "I bring you into my camp and show you care, you respect my laws and my beliefs". You don't have to agree with them, but you must respect that I saved your *** and that I risked everything dear to me to do so. It is my camp after all. You came needing help, healing, food, shelter, whatever. I give it to you, ok then, learn how to talk with me and share my pipe. LEAVE my camp with gratitude and remembrance, go on; be thankful you ever crossed my path. If and when you ever return, bring along your respect and some desire to understand my ways.

A human is a human. I would do what I could to save their lives, seriously. I am against illegal immigration as an issue, but, human life is more precious and I care about human lives..

Not only am I obligated to help another Human, but after the rescue was done, would offer the person food,drink and shelter. I am Human first, American by birth, US Citizen in protest.

I would help them of course, becuause they are a human being. But while at the hospital, I would tell them they're illegal, becuase they either need to follow our laws, or get the hell out.

I would help-but they can't live with me forever-or expect me to support their medical or school their kids or give them housing and on and on. They can't cause hardship for my own family and expect me too just adjust. And they can't bring thousand more and expect that it will all work out. And they can't expect that I can solve the problems of the world.
And if the boat is filled they can't come on-if everyone will drown.

Even I would help that person. I don't agree with them being here at all, as most of you know but I am not heartless. I would help them. I can't stand to see anything or anyone suffer, not even a criminal.

I'd probably help them enough til the ambulance got there. Than I would leave. If I stayed and gave my name the illegal would probably sue me for helping him and take my house away. And Get Away with It.

I am VERY ANTI-illegaI,but i am NOT against any human being who needs help (no matter where they are from).
I would call for an ambulance,since it is AGAINST the LAW to TRANSPORT illegals yourself!!! And, i would ALSO notify INS,because the ARE illegal!!!!!
