"Get your illegal alien butt out of my country"
Posted on 02/13/2013 12:23:03 PM PST by Kaslin
Back in December, "undocumented Americans" were in the running to become TIME Magazine's "Person of the Year" and just two weeks ago, Democratic Rep. John Conyers referred to illegal immigrants as simply "out of status" Americans. Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Capitol Hill, illegal immigrant Jose Antonio Vargas asked Congress not to call him "illegal."
Jose Antonio Vargas, an illegal immigrant and former reporter, scolded a congressional panel on Wednesday, saying that he should not be called illegal, and saying it is an insult to his family who brought him here.
“When you inaccurately call me illegal, you not only dehumanize me, you’re offending them,” he said. “No human being is illegal.”
Mr. Vargas testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee alongside Chris Crane — a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent and president of the ICE agents’ union — who is unable to arrest him under the administration’s new non-deportation policies.
Mr. Vargas, who “came out” as an illegal immigrant several years ago, delivered an emotional plea for the country to legalize him.
How can Vargas be legalized if he isn't illegal? As a reminder, entering the United States without permission is a crime or in other words is, illegal.
A reminder about US Code-Section 1325- Improper Entry by Alien:
(a) Improper time or place; avoidance of examination or inspection;
misrepresentation and concealment of facts Any alien who (1) enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers, or (2) eludes examination or inspection by immigration officers, or (3) attempts to enter or obtains entry to the United States by a willfully false or misleading representation or the willful concealment of a material fact, shall, for the first commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than 6 months, or both, and, for a subsequent commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18, or imprisoned not more than 2 years, or both.
(b) Improper time or place; civil penalties Any alien who is apprehended while entering (or attempting to enter) the United States at a time or place other than as designated by immigration officers shall be subject to a civil penalty
OK, then Criminalien it is....
:: “No human being is illegal.” ::
If you can’t win the debate on its merits, change the definition of “debate”.
"Get your illegal alien butt out of my country"
How about invader? Thief? Criminal of breaking and entering without permission? Do any of those ring a bell?

“illegal immigrant Jose Antonio Vargas asked Congress not to call him “illegal.”
Okay......wetback.
How about we change from “illegal alien” to “unprosecuted criminal foreigners in America”?
“When you inaccurately call me illegal, you not only dehumanize me, you’re offending them,” he said. “No human being is illegal.”
If no human is illegal why are our prisons full?
OK then,Pedro.How about “scumbag wetback”?
“When you inaccurately call me illegal, you not only dehumanize me, you’re offending them,” he said. “No human being is illegal.”
This is called “changing the subject”. The wetback can argue semantics over whether a human can be illegal but the fact remains that HE IS AN ALIEN WHO IS IN THE COUNTRY ILLEGALLY. Hence the term ILLEGAL ALIEN.
I’d like to see the specifics on how undocumented foreign visitors are handled in Russia or China.
Actually, Jose, I’m calling you an “alien”. That is the noun. “Illegal” is an adjective describing that noun, not describing your physical being. YOU are an “alien”, and your alien STATUS is “illegal”, since you are in violation of our laws by being here. If you would spend a little more time learning the language, maybe you would understand that. (But sadly, most of our Congresspersons also don’t understand that point, so they didn’t call you on it.)
saying it is an insult to his family who brought him here.
***in the meantime he insults those of us who are here legally.
I've always wanted to ask that of ANY of these illegal immigrant "advocates." BTW, isn't assisting someone in committing a crime a crime in itself?
We live under a completely corrupt and lawless government, from top to bottom.

With Barky backing him up and whispering in his ear, this pendejo is getting kinda sporty with Congress, ain't he? Like he don' need no steenkeeng bazzhes ..... Someone ought to whisper in his ear that, if he doesn't sharpen up a bit, these gueros can send his skinny ass to prison for contempt of the Congress.
Yeah, I noticed that. I'm about ready to send his sorry butt home on a catapult.
How about I call you a cab, to take you back to Mexico.
I wish you would stop candy coating.
Crimmigrant
How about “temporarily unregistered Democrat Voter”?
