De Blasio's NYC bans use of words 'illegal alien' said supposedly in 'hate'
American Thinker ^ | September 27, 2019 | Monica Showalter

Now that socialist Bill de Blasio is washed out of the Democratic presidential election primaries, he's back to running New York City, doing the Sandinista thing , and banning free speech.

The New York Post has identified his latest bid to make New York Cuba :

It’s now against the law in New York City to threaten someone with a call to immigration authorities or refer to them as an “illegal alien” when motivated by hate.

The restrictions — violations of which are punishable by fines of up to $250,000 per offense — are outlined in a 29-page directive released by City Hall’s Commission on Human Rights.

“‘Alien’ — used in many laws to refer to a ‘noncitizen’ person — is a term that may carry negative connotations and dehumanize immigrants, marking them as ‘other,'” reads one passage of the memo. “The use of certain language, including ‘illegal alien’ and ‘illegals,’ with the intent to demean, humiliate, or offend a person or persons constitutes discrimination.”

Which is an outrageous assault on free speech, as well as free thinking. The term 'illegal alien' wasn't something cooked up by racists, but a federal government legal term, perfectly legal in description.

Because some breakers of immigration law and their leftist advocates don't like it, given that it ultimately creates distinctions between legal and illegal activity, some sort of truth squad is about to be set up to sort out everyday New Yorkers' correct frame of mind. Was it hateful or wasn't it? Shall we take away someone's home equity for using it or shall we not?

Hmmmf.

Are they US citizens? No. They are aliens.
Are they in the US legally? No. They are here illegally.

Easy math. 1+1=2

De Blasio can go stuff it.

Illegal command by a Left wing doucebag.

“Illegal Aliens” is simply the most accurate description of them.

“Deported Already and Never Permitted to Return” would be the preferable description.

It’s the legal term codified by statute. So DeBlasio is literally declaring the law to be illegal. These people are in another universe in their minds.

Bill de Blasio which is not his real name has cost the taxpayers at least $12 million in legal fees for the crimes he has committed.

The leftwing speech codes to lump illegals and legals into the standard phrase “immigrants” shows disrespect and, therefore, hate against legal immigrants.

Given that we are also told not using chosen pronouns is hate too they also dislike sanity.

"DeBlasio, like all who advocate for and act on the premise that some human beings are to decide for other human beings what they will think, and have government's permission to say, already have committed themselves to the ideas of tyranny instead of the ideas of liberty announced in the Declaration of Independence and protected by the United States Constitution.
"The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God. The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg. ... Reason and free enquiry are the only effectual agents against error." - Thomas Jefferson
