UMD tells students to use 'undocumented citizen' not 'illegal alien'

The PC bulls**t has got to stop.

Let me say it again, we should not even be having this conversation. Anyone known to be in the US illegally should be removed. Let's do that rather than debate what we should call them. Let's just call them "Deported." per the law and forget this conversation.

Absolutely correct. They are not "citizens" and they are not here within the terms of the applicable laws. They are here because the idiot president showed that he will not enforce the laws he swore to uphold.


Personally, I will continue to call them criminal aliens and work toward their removal.

What?!?!?! Citizens?!?!? They just love to play word games to suit their needs. "Illegal Aliens" is the proper term for being politically correct.

That is not being a racist, bigot, unfriendly, rude, or any other negative character flaw from the person saying it. Undocumented is to soften the blow to the true matter that they are here illegally. Yes, they are Aliens, not "Citizens". Aliens being from a foreign country, and they maybe citizens to THEIR country but not in the USA. If you have entered the country illegally, you can't be a "Citizen" of that country just by being here.

But no surprise from the criminals and invaders that they are, they will lie and mislead to get their agendas and their ways. They all need to be DEPORTED NOW.

I agree with you. "Undocumented citizen" is the most bulls**t PC term for illegal alien i have ever heard of.

And they will lie and mislead to get their way.

And they need to be deported.

Maybe I could attend some classes at UMD without paying tuition...

...as an undocumented student.

This just follows former Gov. O'Malley's (he of the MD Dream Act) use of the phrase "New Americans" to describe them. Although we have a new Governor O'Malley's appointees are still in office.

Hadn't heard that "New Americans" bit before. Just another reason to call him a jerk.

We should put an end to all federal, state, and local taxpayer support for colleges and universities -- including student loans.

Haters of whites, heterosexual males, conservatives, Christians, Western Civilization, America, rationality, freedom, free speech, and the rule of law have taken over these institutions.

They deny freedom of speech and conscience as a matter of course.

They are anti-American and -- frankly -- evil.

Their professors are an undistinguished rabble that wouldn't merit even being given a quarter at the local Greyhound Bus Station.

I would sooner give my money to a prostitute or a meth addict.

If we can't close them down, we can at least stop giving them taxpayer money.

The one college I know of that doesn't go in for this nonsense is Hillsdale College in Michigan.

It doesn't accept any taxpayer money.
