Depends on What You mean By Law-abiding?

A story in last Friday's Minneapolis Star Tribune on an illegal immigrant activist who stands to be deported featured this gem:

"For many illegal immigrants and their advocates, Jimenez has become a living emblem of the need to relax tough immigration laws that they say make it virtually impossible for law-abiding, hard-working people like her to obtain legal status."

Doesn't the fact the she is living here illegally make it impossible for her to be "law-abiding"?
