The political correctness police don't want it applied to any immigrants who are here without proper documentation, as they may get offended. Heaven forbid anyone is ever offended.

It depends on how it is used. If it is something that you are doing that is illegal, than it doesn't mean much. If it applies to someone else than it means more.
In today's world where young people were brought up without the discipline or the respect of others that was the norm last century, it doesn't mean very little. The courts, judges, lawyers and politicians have decided that illegal doesn't mean illegal. If someone is not punished for doing something illegal, then it loses it meaning That is what has happened with the meaning of illegal.

Good question. It seems there are too mant that come up with good rationals to want to avoid laws. They break one law coming to this country illegally. Then they think nothing about using others social security numbers. Because they can make more oney and life is better they think it is ok to break the law. Everyday people break the law. Everyone thinks it don't matter any more becuase everyone else is doing it. It is easy to come up with a excuse to break the law. It is even harder to understand when thee are federal laws that say it is illegal to have marijuanna. In any state but California it is illegal. Apparently California don't believe in obeying federal law. If you have cancer in alabama it is illegal to possess majijuana. Even if you did have a note from your doctor.

It means the same as it always has. However, politicians and special interest groups are attempting to blur the meaning by saying it isn't an issue of legal or illegal at all.
We have laws. We have borders. Lets execute the law and maintain our borders.

its something the media is attempting to make you forget. The republicans and democrats have teamed up against Americans to sell us out, most of them anyways. How much more will Americans take before doing something? Dr. Ron Paul is the only 2008 candidate i trust. He would definitely close the borders.

First your president calls illegal immigrants guest workers. When they don't pay taxes, your tax bill must go up. But then, large corporation, that support political candidates, like these workers. They don't have to collect taxes, pay their share of Social Security, provide benefits, etc.
Heck, why don't we make everything legal then there wouldn't be any crime.

The politically correct term in now "undocumented worker." But, many of the illegal aliens have documents; they are fake, but they have them. The illegal aliens remark that "No human being is illegal," my reply is that they are aliens who came to this country illegally, therefore, they are illegal aliens, I call them illegals for short!
A very good site for info about the illegal alien problem is www.numbersusa.com Thanks.

Are you talking about "illegal invasion of a sovereign nation" or "illegal wiretaps"?
