Great idea for a response on Youtube!

For something to be libel it has to be false. Truth hurts.

The "I" word only causes stress to those who it applies to.

The only thing they have "grounds" for is a long bus ride in hand cuffs.

How the mainstream media biases stories to fit their agenda, by using stilted language:

Journalists Told Not to Use Term "Illegal Immigrant"

Note to liberal PC media: "Illegal" isn't a race, it's a crime against our laws.

It will be a cold day in hell before a court can claim “illegal” as an offensive word.
It’s accurate and direct to the point without pointing to one specific race.
It can only be mistaken intentionally,
because the only ones who has a problem with it are those to which it was intended for.
(and their supporters)

ILLEGAL is ILLEGAL is ILLEGAL!
That’s the way it is and that’s the way it will remain

GET OVER IT!!!!!!!

Uninvited guests? They'd probably claim sounds unwelcoming, so maybe unexpected guests?
