If you broke one law, let's say a parking law and you got a fine for it, does that make you an illegal individual?

Why do people call illegal immigrants "illegals"? like their entire being is completely illegal just because they broke one law, usually for survival

I'm genuinely willing to listen and discuss this politely if you wouldn't be just plain racist and arrogant

makes you an illegal parker, there's a penalty for that. crossing a border illegally doesn't make the whole person illegal just the part that crossed the border. there are penalties for that action as well. I myself once illegally crossed the double yellow line, (shhh...)!

@GerOttman I never heard the tarm illegal parker though. It's just a normal person who's facing a parking penalty

@Reserved I can infer you do not live in a large city. Illegal parkers are a big deal in dense urban areas.
