Democrats are actually banning WORDS now…
New York City has banned people from threatening someone with a call to immigration authorities or referring to them as “illegal aliens.”
From American Thinker:
Now that socialist Bill de Blasio is washed out of the Democratic presidential election primaries, he’s back to running New York City, doing the Sandinista thing, and banning free speech. …
The term ‘illegal alien’ wasn’t something cooked up by racists, but a federal government legal term, perfectly legal in description.
Because some breakers of immigration law and their leftist advocates don’t like it, given that it ultimately creates distinctions between legal and illegal activity, some sort of truth squad is about to be set up to sort out everyday New Yorkers’ correct frame of mind. …
It’s not just an illegal assault on the First Amendment, it’s a petri dish for corruption. A high-ranking leftist or his son who uses the term will undoubtedly be excused. An ordinary schmoe with zero political power, or, god forbid, a Republican, will be arrested and stripped of assets in draconian example-making, similar to Stalin’s show trials or Mao’s self-criticism sessions. Sound like a recipe for some Salem witch hunt hysteria? Sound like the perfect set-up for some personal score-settling? You bet it does. The double standards are waiting, all in the name of ensuring that lawbreakers are never offended.
If this isn’t a case for a court challenge on classic First Amendment grounds, what is? …
So what does the law do exactly? Since “illegal alien” is a legal term, will NYC lawmakers and bureaucrats start turning themselves in for prosecution?
Don’t count on it.
Instead, the law apparently only applies if the term “illegal alien” is said out of “hate,” whatever that means.
This creates an impossible legal standard, but don’t you worry. I’m sure the law can be reasonably applied just by using it against Republicans, which is what’s certainly going to happen if Bill De Blasio gets his way.
The New York Post explains:
It’s now against the law in New York City to threaten someone with a call to immigration authorities or refer to them as an “illegal alien” when motivated by hate.
The restrictions — violations of which are punishable by fines of up to $250,000 per offense — are outlined in a 29-page directive released by City Hall’s Commission on Human Rights.
“‘Alien’ — used in many laws to refer to a ‘noncitizen’ person — is a term that may carry negative connotations and dehumanize immigrants, marking them as ‘other,’” reads one passage of the memo. “The use of certain language, including ‘illegal alien’ and ‘illegals,’ with the intent to demean, humiliate, or offend a person or persons constitutes discrimination.” …
What do you think of this new law?

Bill de Blasio is an anti-American with a sick mind.
DeBlasio is an idiot and that “law” is horseshit…Never stand a challenge in court under the first amendment….
The law sucks!
Which is a liberal mind.

Don’t call illegal immigrants nice name that they like to hear. These are people of other countries who do not observed and follow our Immigration laws so it is just fitting to call the said immigrants as “illegal alien”. There are government tax forms to file yearly if you are not a U.S. citizen or legal immigrant which reads ” tax forms- non resident alien” which means these are not legal U.S. residents and rightfully be called “illegal alien”.

NYC AND DEBLOWSO AND THE REST OF THE “LEFT IDIOTS” ARE FUCKED, ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BS!
It’s a Stalinist, Communist illegal and fascist thing to do. Remember the Nazi’s were a socialist group and you see what they did to the people they hated.
Hey! Deblablio, What else would you call anyone who enters the country illegally? They are illegal aliens!
They sure as hell are anyone entering our country illegally are illegal aliens and illegal immagrants same difference and if I found out any are here I’d turn them in to ice
How about adding F U MFer to the banned listing.

They are illegal aliens.to HELL with the democrats
Get out of OUR COUNTRY
They are illegal aliens to HELL with the democrats
Get out of OUR COUNTRY
DeBlasio is and always has been a communist! How did he ever get elected to be mayor of NYC??
Probably voter fraud!! Nyc is lost!! I hope he is defeated in the next election. He certainly has not treated policemen and and firemen with much respect ! As in most liberal cities, there is high crimes running rampant, gang violence, illegals and welfare fraud,
and homelessness creating major problems of disease, etc!! Why do the citizens of NYC put up with this??
God bless America!
Trump,2020. Our only hope!!
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Just Socialism getting its toe in the front door. The whole foot will be next…..
Comrade Diblasio leading the steeple of New York City. Banning free speech now. I think there should be a march on City hall calling out this communist. There should be chants of illegal aliens not undocumented immigrants. These people are not legal immigrants and they shouldn’t be called such. If people want to call them what they are and defy political correctness they should do it. This commie mayor should face a massive lawsuit if he tries to curb anyone’s free speech. The scumbag mayor in a scumbag city who allows his police force to be assaulted and allows thugs to take havoc in the streets needs to have a reality check. This is the USA it isn’t Venezuela. We have a constitution and to tell people what they can say, what they will eat, or what they should be is against our God given rights. It’s against this Constitution of the United States. Let’s hooe when your time is up New Yorkers will wake up. NYC is an embarrassment to our founding principles. Bill Diblasio is a commie. If this man is ever physically put in harm I hope the police will follow his orders and stand down. .5% support for President. Any reason why????
Yeah leave it to the socialist state of new york, the last two mayors were the same way communist in nature, de blastio is the same way a communist to the core. Yeah telling people what they can have, what they can eat what they can say, is there any thing else to say about it? People keeping ragging on cali but they never look at the things that new york does, things like making guns illegal to own in some areas, making it all but impossible to even buy a gun. With new york if you even sneeze the wrong way they take your gun away from you. Now they are telling people what they can say, there are other things coming down the pipeline from de blastio, you can bet your life that what he has planned is not going to be good for the state in the least little bit.
How could the voters in New York City ever have elected at total a__hole like the socialist (Communist?) de Blasio?
The people, yes and whatever family they brought with them, who illegally entered or stayed illegally after visa expiration, are in this country ILLEGALLY, and that is why they are called “illegal aliens”. They are NOT “undocumented workers” and if they are working they are doing THAT illegally, they are “illegal aliens”, or “illegal alien workers.” AND they should NEVER be referred to as simply “immigrants”. I respect, and even admire, people who applied for immigration, waited perhaps years to be admitted, went though the entry process, passed all the health checks, and assimilated into the United States. Those who do NOT follow the legal process or who do not assimilate, are NOT welcome and should be deported whenever possible.
Is this all these losers are capable of, banning words?? Really, and they think they have a chance of outing Trump! Their gonna need to be capable of a whole lot more than banning words, that NOBODY is going to pay any attention to this stupid crap, to beat Trump, between all of the leftist dumacraps and communist put together they can’t come up with one braincell much less, Frame Trump with any of the crimes they’ve committed! They have exposed themselves as the real perpetrator of the crimes and treason by trying to project on to Trump
by their investigations of crimes they already know he did not commit, but now Trump doesn’t
need to investigate who was responsible, they told us! I guess with the mentality of a snail all they can do is ban words they’re too weak to hear! Idiots, every one of them!
It appears that NYC is getting what they voted for. Woe unto them!
How about “non-American felons”?
STAY WELL, SAFE, FREE & BRAVE!
Illegal aliens, illegal aliens, illegal aliens! Now send the swat team after me, DeBlasted!
The people of New York City should recall this illegitimate from office or find him guilty of public harassment and have him castrated for failing to do his duty as the Mayor of New York City. He is an embarrassment to his office. What a POS!
This an ILLEGAL piece of liberal B.S. and we “the people” will end up spending a lot of tax-payer money through court actions before it will finally be found NULL & VOID.
DeBlasio is and always has been a communist! How did he ever get elected to be mayor of NYC??
Probably voter fraud!! Nyc is lost!! I hope he is defeated in the next election. He certainly has not treated policemen and and firemen with much respect ! As in most liberal cities, there are high crimes running rampant, gang violence, illegals and welfare fraud,

Are we being ran by communist now we can’t do this we can’t do that but our tax dollars must support these freeloaders you lawmakers need to support them your Damn self since you want them her so Damon bad get out of our government. We don’t need the likes of any of you stop ducking controlling us. I HATE YOU ALL.
Oh so now the Dimocrats are the “World’s Word Nazi’s”…… WHY can we not call these “GUY’s (generic term for people) Illegal Aliens”…. They are people who have no legal right to be in a foreign country (illegals), They obviously not native to the country they “enter (Alien)…..
Why does the Mayor not clamp down on other disgusting words in common use…Such as Democratic Truth’s and Values, A true description of the word Oxymoron
What about the other words that if used by a Person of very pale opaque color is termed a Racist… but is an every day word in other cultures ( eg Ni###R, CH34K, Y#D, [email protected]#T, [email protected]#E, Dar#@E) to sort of say (without saying) use every day interspaced with swear words????
de blasio is an idiot. ILLEGAL ALIENS are ILLEGAL ALIENS and do not have any place in the USA. Build the WALL and just throw ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS over it . We should throw de blasio over it as well so he can spend time with ILLEGAL ALIENS, problem solved.
I will continue to call then illegal aliens because that is exactly what they are. They are not immigrants. Immigrants are those who come into our Country the right way, by our immigration laws. Illegal aliens are those who cross our Border illegally. de Blasio is breaking our Federal laws.
In the fourth paragraph, didn’t you mean to say ” .,.. is back to ruining New Your City?”
The United States Government apply’s the term fairly & accurately! When they cross our sovereign borders without our permission or invitation they have done so. “ILLEGALLY”
When they are not born under our country flag they are “Aliens”. Hence the proper and legal
definition of “ILLEGAL ALIEN” applies,and certainly is NOT based on the current emotional mental state of anyone who using the term! DeBaliso is a fooking moron,and the sooner the residents of New York city kick that asshole to the curb,the better for all Americans and Legal
Immigrants!
I wish I lived in NY so I could run through Time Square yelling “Illegal Immigrant”. Lets see the a*hole arrest me. No judge, even in NY can take away my freedom of speech.
Mr Asshole mayor and your dick bag wife . You better ban douchebag fuck up
Mother fucker scumbag . Why? Because
Those are most of the words I’ll be calling you . Oh and piece of shit .
Sounds like a 2nd amendment LAWSUIT to me . . . I don’t need the money, but it WOULD sound like a decent chunk of pocket change out of that LAWSUIT. Lawyers will probably LOVE it! Team Trump and his allies 2020 – KAGA (KEEP America Great Again).
This is not the first time they have done this. Their PC language is now widely accepted. The n word was banned a long time ago but just certain people can not say it, how is that for equality? That was getting their foot in the door, they are now trying to trample on us.
deBlasio is a nut case, LOON, mentally unbalanced, idiot Communist, needs to be thrown of NYC. A Federal Prison for this disgusting creep.
