While America continues to pour tax money into walling off the Mexican border, fully half of illegal aliens come into the U.S. by other routes -- many simply arrive via commercial jets, according to immigration authorities.

Expired student and tourist visas, phony marriages, unchecked container ships and the porous Canadian border to the north all contribute as much to illegal immigration as Mexican border jumpers, experts say.

I posted this last year. Half the guys I worked with flew from Equador with minimum luggage and never went home.

A 35,000 foot tall border fence will take care of it.

We could enforce existing law, that would work too.

using the term "illegals" to denote actual human beings is a really shitty thing to do.

Jesus hates you.

Should we just say not welcomed guests?

I don't want to sound shitty.

I think its funny when people blame Canada-South Park stylee for illegal immigration here...

its our border...they're allowed to let in whoever they want to...its our job to keep them out if we're that concerned about it...

Suggest how they should be described.

In other words give me the title that would have made more sense.

The title represents what the author of the article decided.

It is what it is nehe. They are here illegally and they are aliens.

We can call them "aliens that have illegally immigrated" if that satisfies you.

But then we'd just shorten it to illegal aliens anyways. Seriously.

and undocumented immigrant is the technical term that accurately describes their status.

sorry to get all "reality" on you. i know that's difficult a republican to handle. :D

Ahh, the propaganda of language.that's exactly my point.

you are propagandizing so that a group of people are demonized.

it's similar to another period in history.

Imprecision and syncopation of language is responsible for quite a few arguments, actually.
