Mesquite trees become hide-outs and the deep washes turn into human freeways filled with illegal immigrants

I've got an editorial tip for the SLT headline writer:

Remove the word "huge" from the headline and put "illegal" next to "immigrants". It would fit the columns just fine, e.g.:

Tribe battles huge wave of immigrants on porous border with Mexico

An immigrant is an individual who enters a country legally.

An illegal alien is someone who doesn't.

The article used the word "immigrant" 16 times. They referred to the illegal aliens as "illegal immigrants" only 6 times.

(I refer to the illegals as #%&@ing #%$^#@*#s ALL the time.)
