“Status” Quo?

 

Once again, proving that real life is more entertaining (and more frustrating) than fiction, I give you Representative John Conyers.

"I hope no one uses the term 'illegal immigrants' here today," said Committee Ranking Member John Conyers of Michigan. "Our citizens are not illegal—the people in this country are not illegal. They are out of status. They're new Americans that are immigrants, and I think we can forge a path to citizenship that will be able to pass muster."

OUT OF STATUS?!?! THEY'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE! THEY'RE TRESSPASSING! THEY'RE ILLEGAL!

Going to prove that some actually believe that if you change the language, you change the action.
