I’m partial to cockroaches. It allows for many analogies to be derived.
Hurry up, LATimes, and finish going out of business!
What could be fairer than that?
The Los Angeles Times is the Pravda on the Pacific.
No wonder the paper is up for sale,it lost it’s logic.
People who read the LA Times are clearly either:
1. Mentally ill
2. Communist
3. Stupid to the bone
4. Thoroughly brainwashed by academia or government
Take your pick...
Hey Koch boys .. hurry up !

Dean and I remember when the only thing considered racist... was using Sammy Davis Jr as an award from the NAACP.
Yeah, I recall when the only thing considered racist... was when you killed Indians that were attacking you--
Hell, I recall when the only thing considered racist... was to nuke the Japanese to end World War Two.
Well, that's progress... for ya, Curtis!
I know you will not believe it but in St. Olaf it was considered racist... to serve herring with coffee.
Why not call them, in the interest of accuracy: “Persons in line to be registered as Demonrats.”
Los Angeles Slimes: Undocumented Is Also Racist
Much better
Attention Los Angeles Times.........FU and STFU.
Future historians will mock the suicide of the American Republic.
The terms illegal alien and undocumented are not racist, not aimed at any race- just people that are here illegally from other countries or who entered legally but overstayed or otherwise violated their entry agreement. The term undocumented was made up by the left because they did not want to use the legal term illegal alien. The left wants everyone to believe there is no legal way for people from Mexico to come here to work/live. That is nonsense, more entry permits and work permits are issued to citizens of Mexico than any other country.
The left wants to zero in on illegals from Mexico, and it is true that is the largest portion. The truth is there are illegals from many countries, which include every race. Any changes that are made to immigration laws, any amnesty will apply to many others- this is a real issue as we have seen with the Boston terrorists. Truth is if we make it easier for people to come here to live/work/attend school we are making it easier for terrorists as well.

Do you remember when the musician Prince changed his stage name to a symbol as a form of protest against his music label? Since no one could pronounce it, he was generally referred to as “the artist formerly known as Prince” in the press.
The immigration debate took a similar absurd turn yesterday thanks to the Los Angeles Times which announced to the world that it would not only cease referring to people who had violated American immigration laws as “illegal immigrants,” it would also refrain from using the latest politically correct term “undocumented” to describe them as well. Perhaps this was inevitable given the fact that trying to use the word undocumented to refer to someone who overstayed a visa is clearly inaccurate. There are, in fact, documents that prove the individual in question came to this country at some point.
“The alternative suggested by the 1995 guidelines, ‘undocumented immigrants,’ similarly falls short of our goal of precision,” the paper admitted in a memo released to employees.
But rather than take the easy way out and use the fully accurate term “illegal immigrant,” the Times has decided to favor circumlocution instead:
In covering both individuals and groups, the goal is to provide relevance and context and to avoid labels.
Use the term "illegal immigration" to describe the phenomenon of entering or residing in a country in violation of the law.
Avoid using "illegal immigrant" or "undocumented immigrant" to describe individuals except when necessary in direct quotations. [...]
Be specific whenever possible in describing an individual’s status:
- "Authorities said he crossed the border illegally."
- "She entered the country to attend college but overstayed her student visa."
- "He was brought here as a child by his parents, who entered the U.S. without a visa."
While the policy was stated formally yesterday, as the Times’s ombudsman noted, the paper has already been following this practice for some time. There is also a full copy of the memo at the link if you wish to read it.
In the announcement, the Times admitted that the terminology change was made after the Associated Press banned its writers from referring to people in the country against the law as “illegal immigrants” last month.
So what are you supposed to call these illegal border crossers?
GFY, LA-Slimes!
Anything that identifies an illegal as different from legal immigrants and citizens is racist, so we might as well go back to using the term wetback. It is simple, no more racist than saying illegal or undocumented. Finally there is virtue to be found in PC values and multicultural propaganda. We can’t win for losing, so why bother with niceties?
