Watching and listening to the media, we hear more and more "politically correct" terms. Politicians, attorneys, and the media, love to bandy and use our language for their own biased purposes. A prime example was President Clinton's answer while being interrogated about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky. "Define sex."
We have those same enigmatic terms being tossed about everyday. An "illegal alien" is reported as an
"undocumented alien". To insure we properly discuss these two terms without any prejudicial misunderstanding on my part, below are synonyms/definitions, from Webster's New World dictionary.
ILLEGAL: Synonyms: criminal, felonious, illegitimate, illicit, lawless, unlawful, wrongful
UNDOCUMENTED: lacking necessary documents (as for e.g. permission to live or work in a country); "undocumented aliens"; "undocumented tax deductions")
Therefore, if someone with malice of forethought and intent, enters this country to gain wrongful/illegitimate employment or obtain any form of support from the government, they are "intentionally and continuously" committing crimes. To intentionally, illegally enter the United States to become pregnant and have automatic citizen children is "conspiracy and fraud' perpetrated against the true citizens, taxpayers, and all local, state, and federal governments.
Many people call these aliens, "Undocumented" and state they aid the economy doing jobs "Americans" won't do. They focus on lawn services, harvesting fruits & vegetables, maid services, car washes, etc. My question is "Who did these jobs before we had this influx of wonderful menial laborers?" WE DID. As teenagers, to pay for our cars, fuel, insurance, and "dating" money, we washed cars, mowed lawns, painted houses, & worked with our parents in their stores We even, HEAVEN FORGIVE OUR PARENTS, made our own beds, took out the trash, did laundry, dishes, & dusted. No wonder our generation requires so much therapy. What terrible parental training to "force" your children to accept responsibility, learn teamwork, and (EGAD!!) be part of a family.
Let's be "Fair & Balanced" on this point. If indeed, we are going to call, anyone who purposely commits a crime "Undocumented" rather than "Illegal", this politically motivated attitude must include everyone. For example, shouldn't we have called John Dillinger, an Undocumented Banker, Al Capone and "Da Boys" were just Undocumented liquor distributors, & the Jesse James Gang, simply Undocumented transportation (train/stagecoach) inspectors.
ILLEGAL IS ILLEGAL. WHAT IS SO DAMN DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. LET LAW ENFORCEMENT, NOT POLITICIANS WANTING VOTES, ENFORCE THE LAW.
Enough, I need a drink. "Carmelita, it's Martini time again" Shoot, I would get much better service, if I could speak Spanish.
