1. The idea of putting a woman going through an emotional experience in the home of a stranger strikes me as odd. And also potentially dangerous. Couching that housing in terms of fugitive slaves just makes it weirder.

2. There are going to be attempts by legislators in red states to reach across state lines and prosecute people who assist in these things. I think putting a step between you and the person would make sense.
