If you're from a different country, you're an alien. If you came in illegally, you're illegal.
Can't understand what's insulting or offensive about facts. It's just proper nomenclature.
Also, it has absolutely nothing to do with race. An illegal norwegian is still illegal.
You're being obtuse on purpose.
There is no reason a normal citizen should ever have to use the term "illegal alien".
I think the bill is stupid, but I love to see people spin webs about how this is going to ruin america because they think they can't still randomly assume some Hispanic guy is an illegal immigrant.
I swear I'm being honest. I'm not "being obtuse on purpose".
Also, I'm from South America. If you come to my country illegally, I'll still call you a illegal alien, because, quite simply, that's what you would be.
I really fail to understand what's wrong with that.
How many times in your life have you called somebody that to their face? Or even in the presence of a person you thought was illegal? ---
