Kinda like calling undocumented pharmacists "drug dealers"?
Calling people "drug dealers" in the 21st century is a deliberate attempt a dehumanization.
I know, these libs make some of the dumbest remarks, don't they? Illegal alien is the lawful immigration term for those in our country illegally, not "undocumented" or any other made up PC term. Alien = foreigner. Illegal = the status of certain foreigners in our country. Where's the dehumanization? Law breakers are still humans, aren't they? I guess we should top calling rapists, rapists and murderers, murderers because it dehumanizes them?

Another example of the left's redefinition of words below...
More recent is the left's use of the words “white supremacy”, using it as a catchall for anything out of favor on the left agenda. The progressives are changing widely understood meaning of white supremacy and repurposing it to placate their angry, anti-Trump base. They are also creating associations between anything Republican or conservative and white supremacy.
This is defamation by redefinition of words, and its intention is to frighten and punish opposing voices.
Why don't you do a poll on how many of those doctors, professors, researchers, etc. are illegal? Not one of us are complaining about legal immigration. We welcome legal immigration. Sometime we feel we should be more selective; but if all you have in NJ are doctors, professors, researchers, etc. you are already being very selective!
So, you support importing smart people who will work for 1/2 the price or less and take American jobs, but you don't support those who will do jobs Americans won't do (meat packing, hot weather construction, etc.)....
Isn't it even worse when our HIGH income possibilities lose their potential careers? Are you truly saying we don't have enough smart Americans?
I'm confused..."legal" is what the profit-making corporation lobbied the government so they can screw real Americans. But that is fine with you...because some paid-off political hack said so???
The funny thing is the left cheers and support the name calling of anyone who doesn't agree with their agenda and willingly (and blindly) go along with the changing words that encourages the acceptance of illegals.
And they still can't see it!
So it's not the billions of dollars in jobs the "legal" HB-1 immigrants are taking from Americans...you have no concern about that? But the guy cleaning the toilet is in your nightmares?
Funny how Democrats are oh so concerned with dehumanization illegal aliens but cheer calling Trump supporters deplorable's, racist, Nazi's etc.
Not all Democrats as the vast majority of people here are against Sanctuary cities/states, many of them Dems. Its along the lines of the poll on here wrt gay marriage, the vast majority of all people were fine with it, Republicans included.

Hardly anyone supports Sanctuary cities, and in spite of that they still exists. How's that for representation
I think if you take the emotions out of it and people understand the issues involved, most intelligent people are going to come out against sanctuary cities. It simply is incredibly bad urban policy, not to mention unfair to your own citizens, to encourage a law-breaking illegal underclass to come to your city and compete with your own poor and middle class citizens for housing, jobs, health and education.
But that comes down to the million dollar question. If so many people are against sanctuary cities and states, probably even deep in places like New York City and San Francisco, why are their voices not being heard in the media?
