He's referencing moral frameworks, hence the kohlberg scale comment. Some folks take the law as gospel: i.e., if something is against the law and you are arrested for it, then the only problem is you, the person arrested. According to that mind state, all of the folks who are in america illegally are therefore deserving of whatever the law (sort of says and) does to them.
