Imo these two viewpoints are not at odds with eachother. Killing a healthcare CEO is illegal and breaks the law, but it did measurably lead to short term improvements in healthcare.
If Alex is against undocumented immigrants, there is a root cause somewhere. Why are they only against undocumented immigrants instead of all immigrants? Are there any exceptions to that (perhaps, if they are fleeing for their life from gang violence or rampant food scarcity)?
If it is against all immigrants, then are there any exceptions to that? How deep does it go, do they also dislike immigrants from one state to another, or is it a cultural difference thing? Eventually they will reveal if they are personally (aka, irrationally) uncomfortable with something that you are okay with, or are uninformed/not looking through the same lens as you.
In this case, are they against breaking the law as a matter-of-fact or are they okay with a little bit of “lawbreaking” elsewhere? For example, taking a long restroom break while on company time and getting paid for that time? How about handing out water to people waiting to vote in a place where that is outlawed, like Georgia?
They might be a lot more supportive when nuance and humanity are thrown in to the picture. Laws aren’t necessarily just. If they think that they are and wont change their viewpoint, then it is probably okay to agree to disagree.
