Florida Democrat Wants To Ban The Term “Illegal Alien”

Sure.  Why not.

Let’s ban words like “criminal,” “felon,” “rapist,” “thief,” “burglar” and “pedophile” while we’re at it.

We wouldn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings…

Bit by bit, step by step, the liberals who behave as though they do not know right from wrong, work to eliminate the distinction between those to ideas.

They believe in the self, and gratification of the self, and have openly rejected common sense, morality, and God himself.

This post is simply another example of the incremental steps they take to accomplish a goal of a society that does not and can not recognize right and wrong.

Ban The Term “Illegal Alien”

Yes! And my local drug dealer is merely an undocumented pharmacist!



Those who think the party or the country, will be “taught a lesson” by handing the levers of power over to the liberals will learn a lesson, but it will be at the expense of our country and her liberties. And there are no guarantees that the party or the country will come out stronger, more conservative or better positioned to win elections against the incumbent liberals.

I’d Like To Ban The Term “Florida Democrat”.

Since Google seems to like this website and will most likely rank this thread into the top ten - hi Senator Frederica Wilson! You’re a petty moron! And I don’t care if you find that offensive.

Have a nice day.

Proof,

banning terms is something the Left does routinely to itself.  At one time, during the Sufferagist period, they were ’moderns‘, or Progressives (it’s purely coincidental that Progress happens to be a favorite buzzword in the Soviet lexicon, as is Vanguard).

Communism never really caught on with Mainstream Americans, indeed made a semi-bad name for itself during that period between the 1930’s to the 1950’s, but since that time, a fawning domestic media have white-washed its history.  As a result, it doesn’t have nearly the bad connotation it ought to have.

Instead, communists blended in with and took over the Democratic party, culminating with the radical Left’s seizing the reigns of power during the 1968 Chicago convention. 

So, they adopted a new moniker—Liberal.

That started to be associated with New Age Sensitive guys, Jimma Carter, smelly Berkeley women who didn’t shave and preferred other women, so it was quietly shifted to Progressive.

After the Democrats lost Congress in the wake of the Assault Weapons Ban, it changed yet again to Moderate.  Anyone not-Left became extremist.

Labelling is very important to the Left.  They use to frame their enemies in a bad light and to confuse.

One of the biggest confusion measures they have succeeded with is to call Conservative America RED.  The Left have always been Red(s), so this rankles me to no end.

Anyways, while I agree with you, the bottom line is, they’d come up with some other camouflage phrase to describe themselves.

Liberal.

Logically
Intellectually
Biblically
Ethically
Racially
And
Linguistically
Challenged

i knew Dave Dellinger personally until he died and i know he’s not a commie. a big time socialist for sure, but not a commie. he really was a kind and smart guy.

so it was quietly shifted to Progressive.

actually the progressive party came out of vermont. a bunch of hippies came up with it in the 70s. its a viable party there too. there are regularly progressive ‘spoiler’ candidates.

Yeah I always figured if lefties ever managed to pass hate speech laws they’d start pressing for banning “not nice” speech, then “slightly mean spirited” speech, and finally “words that have negative connotation” speech.

Mr. Mxyzptlk on February 28, 2007 at 07:50 pm

I hear the latest euphemism for the homeless is Urban Outdoorsman.  Anything to avoid telling the truth about things.

Lefties lie; it’s all they have.

Mr. Mxyzptlk,

Orwell zeroed in how the Left likes to control the language as a way of ultimately controlling thoughts.  Hence NewSpeak, which was English, dressed down in Maoist union suits with all shades of meaning replaced by Good, Plusgood and DoublePlusGood. 

Leftist PC speech was nicely lampooned by Stallone in the 1993 Demolition Man and goofed on by the character played by Denis Leary.

Yeah I caught that back in the day even though I was only 11 when I first saw the movie.

What is really funny is this lampooning is censored when it is showed on TBS. Thanks FCC!

Wait!  Why isn’t the ACLU defending my right to call them aliens?  Fine, let’s just call them “illegals"…

GroovyPKP on March 1, 2007 at 10:30 am

Wait!  Why isn’t the ACLU defending my right to call them aliens?

Good point. I noticed that the ACLU isn’t jumping up and down about the proposal to ban the ‘n’ word in New York either, a VERY clear violation of free speech. I may offend but to outlaw words is a very dangerous precedent.

Selective outrage is a trademark of the left.

I may offend

IT may offend. Typo. Sorry. Although it has been brought to my attention by some sensitive types that I DO sometimes offend. Sigh. Tough. Get over it. Have a nice day.
