100% correct.

By the very definition of the word, illegal aliens are in fact invaders and should be dealt with accordingly.

You sound like one of those Indians who didn't see a problem in how many ships kept arriving from Europe.

And look what happened the Indians. Why can't we ever learn from history, from the mistake of others?

You'll be fine as long as they don't offer you blankets and treaties, and wouldn't that be the Europeans' mistake? You know assuming that people should break treaties, exterminate people, and drive them off their land was ok to do? Also lol @ comparing the two.

Analogy fail.
So not only do you get the definition of immigrant wrong, you manage to make it clear that you don't know what an analogy is, either. lolz.

BTW recently in another thread you effectively stated that it was illegal to invite a criminal into your yard. No relevance to this thread, but I feel it's important to bring up the fact that you are a reminder away from forgetting to breathe at any given moment.

Just as shoplifters are still shoppers right?Drug dealers are merchants or pharmacists.
Sure if you paint with a broad enough brush.
Or we can call them what they actually are and thats an illegal immigrant. Meaning someone who has no right to be here. Someone with no regard for laws that inconvenience them. For sure not all are bad people. I'll even be honest and admit that i think most are just average people looking to find a better life and they hope for the best. The problem is like most average people who start down the bad path they find themselvesmoving farther and farther away from honest and honorable.
take cops that go bad. Im sure some started out rotten. can't be helped bad apples always find a way in. But in my opinion most start out with honorable intensions. maybe look the other way a few times. Maybe get paid a little for the favor. next thing you know they are looking away for pay from the very people they once hated.
As far as mexican rockers go. I value those opinions about as much as i do American rockers.

It is imperative that the correct adjective be used in front of the word "immigrant". Some are legal immigrants and some are illegal immigrants/aliens. Those who only use the word "immigrant" when referring to illegal aliens are being blatantly dishonest by blurring those two groups together and they know it. It is just another intentional tactic that the pro-illegals use to deter the attention away from the fact that illegal aliens are immigration lawbreakers and are not just "immigrants" in the true sense of the word.

Pretty clear that c-nut just admitted that illegal immigrants are obviously immigrants.
