Advocating for Illegal immigrants is advocating for anarchy.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchy?wasRedirected=true

Anarchy (from Greek: ἀναρχίᾱ anarchíā, "without ruler") may refer to any of the following:

"No rulership or enforced authority."<1>
"Absence of government; a state of lawlessness due to the absence or inefficiency of the supreme power; political disorder."<2>
"A social state in which there is no governing person or group of people, but each individual has absolute liberty (without the implication of disorder)."<3>
"Absence or non-recognition of authority and order in any given sphere."<4>
"Acting without waiting for instructions or official permission... The root of anarchism is the single impulse to do it yourself: everything else follows from this." <5>

-----

People wonder why an anarchist group would get involved in the immigration protests and the answer is pretty simple. Their interests in this matter are perfectly matched. Both would like non-enforcement and the flouting of federal authority.
