Illegal immigration is pretty self explanatory. It refers to people that try to immigrate to a foreign country by illegal methods such as sneaking across a border or overstaying a temporary visa.

Illegal immigration refers to immigration across national borders in a way that violates the immigration laws of the destination country. Under this definition, an illegal immigrant is a foreigner who either has illegally crossed an international political border, be it by land, sea or air, or a foreigner who has entered a country legally but then overstays his/her visa in order to live and/or work therein. In politics, the term may imply a larger set of social issues and time constraints with disputed consequences in areas such as economy, social welfare, education, health care, slavery, prostitution, crime, legal protections, voting rights, public services, and human rights. Illegal emigration would be leaving a country in a manner that violates the laws of the country being exited.

The official language is illegal alien -- one who entered the country without proper authority or papers, a trespasser. It also applies to one who overstayed his VISA or failed to properly report or follow the immigration laws.

It is a term used by liberal democrats to soften the sound of the true definition of illegal aliens, or foreign invasion.

Lazy *** mexicans who dont want to live in their horrible *** country. They would rather build Americans houses and not get paid. LOL
