The Defensive term "illegal Immigrant" is incorrect!

Recommended Posts

"Calling an immigrant “illegal” before the conclusion of immigration proceedings is like calling a criminal defendant “guilty” before a jury has rendered a verdict."

So many people that are unaware of the issues of immigration or that are in opposition of the DREAm ACT and DACA are unkowingly and inaccuratly using the term and offending the very people they describe. Everyone has a different case and reason for being in the USA. And many myths have been rendered to the ignorant mind. What's your thoughts? Opinions? Have your friends ever used the term and you corrected them? Or that "undocumented" residents do pay taxes, and so on?

I ask myself the same thing... maybe to much weight on their back... or the fatigue, or straight up lousy swimmers.lol
