Thoughts and feelings about "illegals"

I have to agree. The term sounds really dehumanizing. "Alien" is another one... A legal term, I know, but just because of the popular connotation of space aliens I can't help but think that whenever one uses it to refer to illegal immigrants one is equating them with a bunch of bloodthirsty savage Martians storming the border. Silly, I know. Personal biases.

I've got my own rather personal reasons why I think we should work toward humane illegal immigration policy in the US.
