What term describes an offense against the integrity of United States borders?

Trafficking
Smuggling
Robbery
Burglary

The correct answer is: Smuggling

The term that describes an offense against the integrity of United States borders is smuggling. Smuggling involves the illegal movement of goods or people across borders and typically aims to evade law enforcement or regulatory measures. This can include a variety of activities, such as transporting drugs, weapons, or unauthorized immigrants, directly violating border control laws. While trafficking may also involve illegal activities, it often pertains to the larger, organized movement of people or goods for profit, particularly in relation to human trafficking or narcotics, which may not be specifically focused on the borders. Robbery and burglary, on the other hand, are crimes that typically occur at a location rather than involving cross-border offenses and do not pertain to the security or integrity of national borders. They are focused on property crimes rather than violations of immigration or customs laws.
