Comment on 20 states sue Biden admin over illegals
jimbolauski@lemm.ee 6 months agoI can’t change how you feel about a group nor can I change the definition of a word. It’s a shame you only see a person’s immigration status there’s more to an illegal than how they entered the country.

You're going to have to explain what the word means to me then, because the phrase by itself doesn't even seem to refer to immigration status at all and I don't know what you mean by it.

I gave you the definition of illegal here.

One that doesn't fit with your later claim that it isn't derogatory so both assertions cannot be true.
The word you used doesn't even mention people so what is it to which you are referring when you use it?

There is nothing in the definition that says illegal is a derogatory term. Remember when you forgot about the word sometimes.
The first 3 words in the definition of illegal are “a person who”. When I say illegal I’m referring to a person who has entered or resides in the US illegally.
