My initial post addressed just "illegal Alien". And no, for illegal alien, I don't think it's offensive. I already explained why. (And sorry, there were too many quotes and gamefaqs told me to trim the message) You said its not offensive because its a fact. What if its not a fact and you are calling a person born in the US an illegal alien because they are of Mexican origin? Wait, what...? So you're assuming that people that are against this legislation want the right to run around like crazy people pointing to all people that they presume have latin ancestry and yell "ILLEGAL ALIEN! ILLEGAL ALIEN!"...? I make no such assumption but thats literally all the law says. Says you cant use that language to harass a coworker Im New York City. Ive said other people have made valid points about the legislation. But the law itself only provides for prohibition of these terms when used to harass a coworker or tenant in public housing. --- Annoy a Conservative, punch a Nazi. <cite>kangolcone posted [p:928197483] in So Apparen...
