Media urge not to use the words "illegal immigrant"

[Jayarcy]

I see my word was blacked out. That's ok, because it really was an offensive name, and if City Data doesn't allow it, that's fine with me. It's their site to block what they deem inappropriate. Lesson learned.

What they want is to be called 'immigrants' only, and not be identified as being here illegally. They'd like to just sort of slip in among the legal immigrants, and have their illegal status overlooked.

I don't even care about illegal immigration. But I do care about the right to tell the truth! An illegal immigrant is an illegal. Sorry, I am NOT using that many syllables to describe ANYONE

No because the employers are not here illegally in our country. They are American lawbreakers not following our labor laws.
