I understand what you're saying MG, but are you so sure you have no reason to believe individuals in that home are not personally guilty of criminal activity? I'll give you an example of what I'm getting at. Surely you are aware of the anti-Semitism in TF's publications. If the country you're in has hate laws, then it's possible that those individuals may be guilty of anti-Semitism, depending on how those laws are written. For example, it may be illegal to simply possess hate literature, let alone disseminate it.
Of course, trying to prosecute individuals in one small commune for propagating hate would be quite difficult. Unless those persons were jailed and not granted bail, they would certainly flee the country before a trial could take place. But just because it would be difficult to nail them on specific criminal charges, especially since they have no compunction against defying or lying to legal authorities, doesn't mean they are not guilty of those charges. The same applies to other criminal activities or the denial of certain basic human rights.
