It appears it's now unacceptable to refer to a person as an illegal immigrant, and now they must be called "migrants". Wow! Where have we arrived?
It's an attempt by certain individuals for certain individuals and organizations to blur the distinction between people from other countries who have gained entrance to the US by submitting applications, undergoing investigations and interviews and evaluations, versus those that have been taught by cartels and other nefarious folks enough English to say "I want asylum".
B******* asylum claims need to end. These illegal aliens have been coached to say that and I guarantee you no one actually investigates any damn bit of it. Birthright citizenship also needs to end. At some point you have to say that America is actually for American citizens but according to Democrats such talk consist of "hate speech".
What other legal rights would you like to remove without due process? And what other parts of the Constitution would you like to eliminate?
I believe we are to refer to them by the proper pronoun "newcomers". I tried to get into a Whitehouse party, but I wasn't on the list. The "newcomer" line didn't work, Newcomer for thee, illegal entry for me.
I believe we are to refer to them however we choose. I choose 'illegal immigrant'. It really is that simple ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Next?
Well, there was a remain it Mexico Trump-era policy of returning asylum seekers to Mexico.... but the Biden administration put and end to that... https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/f...ogram.pdf?mc_cid=304aa47fd7&mc_eid=a289e13bc1
And that vastly dropped the number of illegal immigrants entering Mexico when Mexico realized that they would have to keep them in their country if they let them into their own Southern border. But the moron in the white house that we have now, in his infinite wisdom decided that that needed to come to a stop. But yet people like @FreshAir keeps telling us that the only reason that the illegals are coming in such great numbers is because the Republicans keep telling everyone that the border is open because the damn thing is
Who says it's "unacceptable"? Breitbart, Fox.... some other right wingnut media? Why do folks on the right never say? You can call them them what you want. But the fact is that most of the people we typically refer to as "illegal immigrants", came in legally. Having said that, I also usually refer to them as illegal immigrants. It's just a term used to communicate.
What the hell do you mean who says that? The same exact people that keep telling us that gender is not the same thing as your genitals. If you call people illegal immigrants then you get called a bigot just the same as if you call a man dressed up in a dress a man pretending to be a woman. But just for giggles.... Quote the last elected Democrat that actually uttered the phrase illegal immigrant or illegal alien. And for further giggles.... Show us the last time you actually said illegal immigrant
I've never been called a bigot for saying "illegal immigrant". And even if someone did say I was a bigot for using that term...so what. I know I'm not a bigot. What the hell do I care if some stranger believes I'm a bigot. I think the only people who are concerned with being called a bigot, are bigots.
When will you learn to stop cutting off 90% of someone's post so you can disingenuously misrepresent what they said? Why don't you address the rest of my post? Because of course you are unable to because it would make your point moot.
the covid national emergency was over, Mexico was not gonna do that forever and our current laws did not allow it
Who cares? Change the law and make the law say if they're going to keep letting them through their country to pass from the south to the north, they can either stop letting them pass their southern border or start keeping their asses there.
