AP's ban on the term 'illegal immigrant' sparks fierce debate



Will this result in more illegals available in the HD or Lowes parking lot labor pools for home repairs?


Of course it will. You don't really believe the govt wants illegals out of this country, do you. The AP bowing to PC pressure is a perfect example. The fact they entered the country illegally means nothing when cheap labor is needed. Many large companies can't move offshore. Bingo! Illegals! But, let's diminish the impact on US worker psyches, the one's allegedly unwilling to work, by not using the term "illegal". We'll call them economically viable laborers, or EVs for short. Now, aren't we all happy again? You can now stand in that unemployment compensation line knowing you are not impugning the wholesome self image of a hard working EV! ;)

Canada's too cold. Who would want to live there?

Canada has some great people...but it does get cold! 75% of the population lives within 100 miles of their southern border.

Especially those "imported" from more tropical climates.

lives within 100 miles of their southern border.

All of the Canadians I've met and that I know personally are wonderful folks, it's too bad there are a few bad examples polluting this group. o_O

TDD

Does this mean that Cuban cigars, fully automatic machine guns and stolen c ars are no longer ?illegal??

Me, me, me! (raises hand) ;)

I'm born n' bread in HOT California. The last Summer I lived there (5 yrs ago), I was moving furniture in 105 deg F! Exceeding 110 is not unheard of, though not a daily accurance like AZ. Anyway, I now live at 8K ft in the CO Rockies (currently snowing). Love it!! I love the snow! I love the cold! I may move further north as soon as I can afford a Canada Goose down parka. I love it!

"Fully automatic machine guns" have never been ""illegal"".

Correct-o-mundo. You just need the proper A.T.F. permit.

No, ALL Canadians are wonderful folks.

It's just that some of us have discovered that when you're polite, courteous and respectful to people, they think you're pi$$ poor and you want something from them.

Yer both fulla crap. There are plenty of states where that ATF permit is useless to yer avg civilian. These state laws effectively render a full auto weapon "illegal". If you don't believe it, go to any CA gun range and whip out a full auto AK47 and start blasting. You'll quickly discover precisely how many ways CA defines "illegal".

Maybe not all but Canadians I worked with were great people. Nice, polite and certainly not poor. I recall visiting Canadian hotels with their indoor pools. Nice in cold weather. Better beer too.

My first trip to Las Vegas, many years ago, in January found it full of Canadians. Apparently the country empties out in the winter.

LOL Are "fully automatic machine guns" in the same category as "completely spherical tennis balls" ?? Oh wait, maybe it's "completely chilled ice cubes" ? Or how about "completely wet buckets of water" ?

I wonder where I can get myself only a "half automatic machine gun" or would it be more economical to get a "partially automatic machine gun" ??

I thought they a needed a more complex ATF permit than they do for just "plain machine gun". After all the other are "fully automatic" as well as "machine guns..

Oh!? And of course you know precisely how to obtain this miracle registration.

If yer not an arms dealer or a film industry arms supplier, they are "illegal", illegal defined as: if yer caught with one, yer ass is grass! That's you and me and 99.9% of the rest of CA, nimrod. I'm sorry, but make-believe/fantasy technicalities do not count in real life.

Like I wrote, all of the Canadians I've met and that I know personally are wonderful folks, it's too bad there are a few bad examples polluting this group. ^_^

No, not ALL Canadians are nice folks, most are but not ALL. Home Boi is just one example

That doesn't mean CA allows you to possess one IN CA. Maybe they do, maybe they don't, but your info proves nothing. As far as the Feds are concerned pretty much all semi-auto so-called "assault" rifles are legal yet you can't own them in CA.
