'Illegal Immigrant' sounds so....TRUTHFUL!

Not according to the Associated Press:

The Associated Press says it is no longer appropriate for reporters to use the term “illegal immigrant.” 

The organization announced that its AP Stylebook — the language and grammar guide used by news organizations across the country — will immediately stop approving the phrase. 

“The Stylebook no longer sanctions the term ‘illegal immigrant’ or the use of ‘illegal’ to describe a person,” senior vice president and executive editor Kathleen Carroll said in a post Tuesday on the AP website. “Instead, it tells users that ‘illegal’ should describe only an action, such as living in or immigrating to a country illegally.”

I myself much prefer 'CRIMINALS'. Better yet, 'UNDOCUMENTED DEMOCRATS'. Maybe the AP could get these folks to stop using the term as well:

MacMillan Dictionary
U.S. Legal
Cambridge Dictionary
Longman Dictionary.....to name a few.
