I love the repeated use of the word "immigrants," and the abuse of the words "without permission" instead of "illegal" and also the misuse of the word "infer."
I suppose they couldn't find a reporter whose first language is English.

This "report" made me wonder for the first time, how many different language groups have well-funded and loud activist groups promoting and defending illegal immigration?

French speakers?
Slavic immigrants?
Scandinavian immigrants for justice?

Regarding infer vs. imply, the “reporter” was probably a veteran of the OSU Lantern and has never used a dictionary that didn’t end in “dot com.”

But that said, given the context the error was particularly appropriate: “Reform Immigration for America called the promotion insensitive and offensive and said it inferred a racial bias.” Inferring a racial bias is exactly what Reform Immigration for America, along with the rest of the idiot left, is doing: seeing racism when it’s not there, even and especially when it’s explicitly not there.
