Someone who entered this country, stays here, works here without the proper documents is here ILLEGALLY, and is therefore an illegal. |

So does that make the employers that take advantage of them "illegals" as well? |

I don't often agree when someone talks about "the PC police going too far". But anyone who's thinking that regarding this particular subject is right on the money. Best to let people keep calling them "illegals", lest they find something truly offensive to start calling them instead.

True. We could always go back to '*******.'
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. |
