Thank you for your long and enlightening email. I am very sorry for offending you. Hereafter, I will no longer use the terms “Illegal Immigrant” or “Illegal Alien.”

.
Seriously, from here on out I will make every attempt to be more sensitive to the feelings of others.



Better?

EDIT:  I did all kinds of searches on this only to find that the CORRECT LEGAL TERM is ILLEGAL ALIEN.  CLICK HERE for an example.  Please disregard my apology.

    Greetings from Texas,
    I would love to see the email that sparked this post. I might even need to print it out. We're running low on TP.

    Heh. Maybe I will refer to illegal aliens as "uninvited guests." Some folks are gonna get pissed off no matter what. I did not think my original post was hateful, but I guess it did not come across the way I intended. Oh well...

    "Some folks are gonna get pissed off no matter what."

    Ayup.

    Good reason to keep doing what you're doing.

    Personally, I would take great pleasure in ramping it up and watching their heads explode, but that's just me.
