The act of being an Illegal Alien is not illegal, as it is not a crime to be an Illegal Alien.
An illegal Alien cannot be prosecuted for being an Illegal Alien.
Can you translate that from Stupid into English for the rest of us?
An Illegal Alien is a person not legally present within a legal jurisdiction. It is a crime punishable by fines, deportation and/or restrictions on future legal immigration.
Wha?....are you related to the attorney general of Massachusett’s? “Technically it’s not illegal to be an Illegal”
Moron. Imbecile. ESL. There needs not be a crime. There is a law specifying how foreigners may come to America. If you are operating outside of it, you are in illegal status.
Undocumented is retarded. That’s for someone who just doesn’t havery some paperwork but would otherwise qualify. If I pretend to be a doctor, I’m a quack, not an Undocumented physician.
That sounds like something Bill Clinton might say.
Wrong. It is a misdemeanor the first time you are caught being here illegally. The penalty is deportation. The second time is a felony. And illegal aliens commit multiple crimes, e.g., working, identity theft, tax evasion, lying on employment forms, etc.
Coming into the USA without permission, or overstaying their visa, is the crime. After that, they are illegal aliens.
Your statement is akin to saying that possessing money you've stolen isn't a crime. The crime was stealing it.
Whenever someone proposes that they're not "illegal" but "undocumented" is like my stealing your car, so that would make me an undocumented auto owner, not a car thief.
