Don’t let anyone get away with misusing the terms illegal alien, legal alien and legal immigrant.

There are clearly defined term specificically defined in the immigration code which lists or defines no such status as an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT. That term is totally made up by the fringe left and propagated by the media.

I like criminal invader, personally
Thats a bit of an oversimplification. The code defines both aliens and immigrants, and goes on in much greater detail about what's illegal for them to do.

I already researched it. The question is why THEY insist in attempting to make us use made up terms. @MistyCee
@jackjjackson Ahhh. Those dreaded evil liberal PC types trying to subvert the thoughts of real Americans.

I'm more sympathetic about "undocumented" actually, but have fun.
@jackjjackson

Times change. Langue and the law evolve. And change doesn't just manifest out of thin air. It has to start somewhere.

@FreeSpirit1 yes, or refugee. It's a tactic of the left to use sympathetic terms to manipulate the minds of their stupid followers.

Again doesn’t appear in the immigration code. By law they are either legal or illegal aliens. @FreeSpirit1

@jackjjackson The media doesn't have to use legal terms. They choose their words to frame a narrative they want to push. Everyone knows it and the days of getting no pushback are over.

Are 38% of our taxes going to feed and house and pay people who don't pay taxes or does most of that go to roads and police and education and whatnot?😉
And let's not pretend that an illegal immigrant is by definition not paying taxes. Many of them are paying income tax and obviously they're paying sales tax every time they buy something.
Neither should we pretend that illegal immigrants are by definition getting free housing, medical and food because that's simply not the case.
I'm not sure what distorted version of reality you're upset with but i respectfully decline the invitation to join in your hallucination.
Have a nice night🙂

FYI you may want to know that the term “illegal immigrant” nowhere appears in the immigration code or regulations. The legal status term you refer to is ILLEGAL ALIEN. Anyone saying otherwise is trying to fool you. @BiKeyWest

I think you should be more displeased with "undocumented worker."

@jackjjackson I object to its implication that there is only a paperwork issue to be worked out.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
I think the meaning is clear. A worker without documents. Therefore the person may work however has zero rights otherwise. @SW-User

@jackjjackson What about natural rights endowed by their Creator?

I always call them what they are, illegal aliens. And no amount of bullying by the idiot left is going to change that.

Who, in the media, is propagating the use of the term "illegal immigrant"?
