“The phrase “illegal alien” plays into assumptions that immigrants living in this country without proper documentation are criminals,” Slowik wrote in a recent opinion piece for The Chicago Tribune.~~~~~~~~~~Criminals is what they are!

I don’t get the reaction by liberals.

Historically, the term used was illegal aliens. That changed as the liberals have changed language to be politically correct. Now they are just going back to the historic term. What’s wrong with that?

I understand liberals and PC types are upset, but all they are doing is restoring the language which had been used in the past.

It's the proper word for the status.

Circa, 1780, aliens could not hold land in NYS. It was eventually changed.

Heard a woman on TV (Water’s World?) once decry, “They not *aliens*. They human beings.”

but all they are doing is restoring the language which had been used in the past.

LIEberals use the same tactics as mudslimes: the ratchet effect. If they gain possession for one second, they have perpetual rights to it. Once they have an entitlement, they have perpetual rights to it. If one spends time searching, one will find many examples of that MO in lots of things LIEberals do.
