Kamala Harris, by far the best-looking attorney general, certainly is easy on the eyes. That observation came from no less than President Obama, so you know it’s not sexist to say.
When Twitchy recently checked in on California’s attorney general, her office was investigating the pro-life activist behind those secretly recorded Planned Parenthood videos while her campaign website simultaneously hosted a petition in support of the organization.
On Monday, Harris, who seems likely to win her bid for the Senate, made it clear that illegal aliens are not to be treated like criminals who’d broken the law by entering the United States illegally.
The term "illegal alien” is offensive and we must stop treating undocumented workers as criminals in this country.

Beyond voting, there’s not much the average citizen can do if the government chooses not to enforce its borders. But if the government won’t police the borders, is it really necessary to police the language too? The AP’s doing that already, deciding in 2013 to no longer sanction use of the term “illegal immigrant.”

It's offensive to me, that they came to my country illegally. That's what is offensive to me.

So we shouldn't be using legal terms anymore? What about thieves, rapist, child molesters? What are we calling THEM now?

what else should we refer to the criminals as?

Don’t forget that the White House is on board with guidance not to call felons felons anymore, due to a super-scientific (and apparently super-secret) study showing that labeling a felon as such leads to recidivism.
That is like saying "intruder" or "home invader" is offensive when referring to someone who broke in to your house.
