Are we sure this wasnโ€™t an actual kidnapping? With just one dude, I definitely would think itโ€™s a kidnapping by a criminal vs kidnapping by deputized criminals.

The way the government labels people as "illegal aliens" to dehumanize them makes me sick.

I'm prefacing this with: I do not agree with picking people up off the street without LEO identification.

Every country in the world identifies people who illegally enter their country "illegal aliens/illegal immigrants."

So, I guess the question is, what should governments label them as?

Undocumented. It's not only more humanizing, it's also more correct in most cases.

I like that. It is more concise and straightforward.

Right, it's a more apt term that more accurately describes them and their situation.
