What part of your illegal do they not understand. It gets worse by the day, they have states that want to give tuition breaks to illegal aliens, some want them to be allowed to get drivers licenses. It just makes you want to fricken scream. Illegal Aliens are sucking the life out of this country.
A state legislator in Florida wants to put a stop to illegal aliens – no, not undocumented immigrants, but the use of the term “illegal alien” in official state documents.

Sen. Frederica Wilson, a Democrat whose district is home to thousands of Caribbean immigrants, said: “I personally find the word ‘alien’ offensive when applied to individuals, especially to children. An alien to me is someone from out of [sic] space.”

She has introduced a bill that would bar a state agency or official from using the term, Florida’s News-Press.com reports.

“There are students in our schools whose parents are trying to become citizens and we shouldn’t label them,” she said. “They are immigrants, through no fault of their own, not aliens.”
