    a note for some of us here. (The specifics are US-centric, but the overarching concept can apply outside of the US.)

    Things like vandalism, breaking and entering, and theft are illegal. I would advise folks not to do anything like that to their neighbors who are unlikely to be rich and are just trying to get by honestly for the most part.

    Some things that are good are also illegal, however. Some places, may be illegal to garden on your own land. Did your neighbor’s water get shut off, and you want to share some of yours? You can get fined for that. Do you not have much (and therefore truly do not have space in your home to allow someone to stay), but want to allow someone to sleep in their car on your property? Depending on where you are, also possibly illegal.
