Well, we CERTAINLY wouldn’t want to offend those who break our laws would we?
ILLEGAL ALIENS, it seems, will suffer hurt feelings if we CITIZENS continue the practice of referring to them as…ILLEGAL.
Boo hoo.
They are henceforth to be referred to as UNDOCUMENTED WORKERS.
Not Illegal aliens. Not illegal immigrants.
NOT undocumented immigrants either.
UNDOCUMENTED WORKERS!!!
So says the AP…American Pravda.
What was it that Jon Conyers called them just 2 months ago?
Oh yes…
“I hope no one uses the term illegal immigrants here today. Our citizens are not — the people in this country are not illegal. They are out of status. They are new Americans that are immigrants.”
“Out of Status.”
“NEW Americans that are immigrants.”
Please, somebody educate me…When EXACTLY did those, who are TRESPASSING…ILLEGALLY in OUR country become…”NEW AMERICANS???”
Let’s say you own a home. You have gone out for dinner and, upon your return, you find someone you have never met in your LIFE, sitting on your couch, watching pay-per-view movies, eating YOUR food and drinking your fine wine.
Home invader?
Nooooo.
Squatter???
Certainly NOT.
THIEF???????
Steady now…don’t hurt his delicate feelings.
He’s…AN OUT OF STATUS…HOME OWNER…Isn’t he?
YOU can’t kick him OUT. You can’t call the cops.
YOU will just have to DEAL with it. LET him live in YOUR house. If he gets sick…YOU pay for his doctor. YOU pay for him to go to school and, if
he gets into trouble…YOU pay the fines, court costs and for locking him up…Well, at least until the GOVERNMENT lets him loose.
The dirty rat robbing the bank?
Well now…THAT’S just an UNDOCUMENTED withdrawal isn’t it?
The next time you get pulled over for speeding or blowing a red light…Just tell the nice officer that you don’t HAVE a driver’s license. YOU are an UNDOCUMENTED DRIVER. If the officer tries to write you a ticket for that…call the officer a racist…TELL the officer that being told that what you’re doing is ILLEGAL really hurts your feelings and drive away.
Now, regardless of AP Senior Vice President and Executive Editor of Propaganda, Kathleen Carroll’s statement, “Our goal always is to use the most precise and accurate words so that the meaning is clear to any reader anywhere. The Stylebook no longer sanctions the term ‘illegal immigrant’ or the use of ‘illegal’ to describe a person. Instead, it tells users that ‘illegal’ should describe only an action, such as living in or immigrating to a country illegally,” Department of Homeland Insecurity Director Janet Napolitano had THIS to say:
“They are immigrants who are here illegally, that’s an illegal immigrant.”
Jay Leno calls them “Undocumented Democrats.”
Socialists just HAVE to change definitions of things in order for their nonsense to make sense even to them.
The definition of the word “Is” can apparently mean different things and don’t even get me started on the definition of “Marriage.”
Now, in the socialist dictionary, “Illegal” means “Mexican” and “Mexican is a race of people therefore, if you use the word “Illegal” to describe someone YOU are a RACIST.
Following THAT line of illogic…
I believe in our founding document, the Constitution and, “Constitution” would be defined as “American” which would then be deemed a race THEREFORE…Anyone referring to ME as a “CONSTITUTIONALIST would be a RACIST.
Good grief.
You see, socialists want you to believe that undocumented workers, undocumented Democrats, undocumented IMMIGRANTS or…OUT OF STATUS WHATEVER THEY ARE…Haven’t done ANYTHING wrong and should be allowed to go about their lives and get in state tuition should they decide to learn something.
Socialists will tell you point blank that the vast majority of these people haven’t broken any laws or that they’re not criminals.
HELLO?????
THEY’RE IN OUR COUNTRY ILLEGALLY…The second they set FOOT in OUR country they were BREAKING THE LAW.
They haven’t done anything WRONG??? REALLY???
Well, they say, we simply can’t afford to deport 11 million people.
Is that so?
Let’s see shall we. Last December, the Department of Homeland Insecurity Assistant Secretary of Legislative Affairs responded to a request for information from several senators, (presumably because the ACTUAL Secretary of that branch of indecision was busy editing a dictionary at the time) and told them, “Our conservative estimate suggests that ICE would require a budget of more than $135 billion to apprehend, detain and remove the nation’s entire illegal immigrant population.”
THAT is a lot of money BUT…
Back in 2010…The Federation for American Immigration Reform released THEIR report showing that ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS were costing the taxpayers some…$84.2 BILLION DOLLARS…EACH AND EVERY YEAR for a variety of services like education, healthcare, law enforcement and social services.
So…Let’s do the math.
It would require $135 billion bucks to deport them and, over just the last 2 years since the FAIR report was published…It has cost us $168.4 Billion dollars to let them stay BUT…WE CAN’T AFFORD TO DEPORT THEM???
To be fair…That $84.2 billion/year is coming out of STATE budgets but…the same FAIR study ALSO noted that it was costing $29 BILLION/Year in FEDERAL TAXPAYER dollars to allow these ILLEGALS to stay SO…THE FEDS COULD MAKE THEIR $135 BILLION BACK IN LESS THAN 5 YEARS IF THEY DEPORTED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!!!
Not to mention what such a round-up and mass deportation would do for STATE budgets.
But…We DON’T want to hurt their feelings now do we?
So…Socialists just don’t like the word “ILLEGAL” as it pertains to those who enter our country ILLEGALLY and stick around to bleed our economies of taxpayer money.
They want to change the definition?
Okay…How about THIS…
Reform the LEGAL immigration system so that it doesn’t take 10 to 15 years for those who want to become Americans to do so regardless of their point of origin…Have them come in through LEGAL channels…Have them present their LEGAL documentation and let them do what ALL of our ancestors did.
Learn our language, our customs and our values and assimilate into our society.
Guess what we would call them THEN…
CITIZENS!!!
By the way, socialists…
That deviant pervert that sexually assaulted your daughter even after she peed on herself because you would NEVER allow her to own a gun?
He’s just an “Out of Status” friend with benefits. Don’t hurt his feelings by calling him a rapist.
They are ILLEGAL ALIENS no matter what lies they tell themselves or anyone else. Uninvited, Unwanted Guests and its time they go home. Their rude, nasty ignorance makes them the kind of sickness that we need a vaccine against.
I call them “criminal wetbacks” myself
i think we should “OUT” every congressman/woman AND senator (and those in the administration) who are willing to provide AMNESTY and/or a PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP to the illegals (& those trying to get a VA disability)… this goes beyond the pale!!! i think we should go on the attack against all of the progressives (both sides of the aisle; rubio included) who are trying to change the demographics of the country for political gain… they don’t care that it is killing the middle class; and they don’t give a thought to the men/women who are giving their all to protect our country… what a disgrace!
The entire concept of law is subjective to liberals. Chris Matthews said of Obama, “The guy went to school, he never broke a law. He did everything right.”
And all this time I thought smoking pot and doing cocaine was illegal.
Right on Craig! Right on!
Not only do illegals take jobs away from citizens (if they are willing to work), but what money they DO get (either by working or by handouts from the government) is often sent back to their country of origin (not always Mexico but Central America and Asia), which does American prosperity absolutely no good. If the purpose of allowing illegals become legal is to get enough votes for the liberal party, it’s working … and we are letting it happen.
LOOK, we are all pawns in this magnificent game of theirs, legal or not. I thought the magnificent influx of these people was to replace the Baby Boomers who didnt have a Baby Boom? If that were so, then we would give them seven years to assimilate (press 1 for English or get out). You know, get a job, pay your taxes, learn about our country.
This has been the issue since the Boomers hit Fifty!!
i spent 22 years as a Border Patrol Agent. The term undocumented workers was used by the higher management back in the 1980s. The illegals referred to themselves as ‘mojados”, which means ‘wets’. go figger.
Politics have been intruding on Immigration enforcement since the 1960s. After the people who usually did manual labor went on welfare, someone had to do the work. Employers took high advantage of the situation and could barely claim to have ‘paid’ the illegal aliens who were working for them.
The 11 million illegal alien number is also a number picked out of the air by the DC bunch. Truly we have no clue as to how many illegals are here.
Maybe the feds should take Mexico’s immigration laws verbatium and enact them. Then we can see how much they will complain and say we are being racist then point out that it is the same laws that they have.
People who enter the country illegally and their sympathizers, want to make this a racist problem, which it is not.
If I snuck in a bank and took someones money, it would plainly be illegal, and not racist.
Does the law mean anything to these people and their sympathizers?
If I snuck in a bank, and took someones money would it be illegal?
Sneakers and the people who defend them want to make this a racist problem, which it isn’t.
