Sotomayor: Labeling Illegal Aliens as ‘Criminals’ Is ‘Insulting’

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor said calling illegal aliens “criminals” is “insulting”.

Sotomayor, the nation’s first Hispanic justice, was asked at a talk at Yale Law School Monday about her use of the term “undocumented immigrants” rather than the traditional illegal alien. Sotomayor characterized the issue as a regulatory problem and said labeling immigrants criminals seemed insulting to her.

“I think people then paint those individuals as something less than worthy human beings and it changes the conversation,” Sotomayor said.

It was not clear if Sotomayor was aware that it is a crime to illegally cross the border or overstay a visa, and that re-entry after deportation is punishable by up to 5 years in jail. It was also not clear if Sotomayor was aware of the many crimes committed by illegal aliens who live in the United States.

  1. Hey justice,
    They are ILLEGAL. That is insulting.
    They violated America's sovereignty.
    That is insulting.
    They are breaking the law.
    YOU are insulting all LEGAL immigrants and patriotic Americans.
    Do your darn job and stand up for what's left of America.

  4. The word rape being called "criminal", is "insulting". We should change it to "One sided consensual sex". Right? That lady is a whack nut.

  5. Not calling a law breaker a criminal is insulting when you have higher expectations of people to tell the truth and be honest. That's the problem with democrats. They do not value honesty.

  7. Unfortunately, her mindset is what our leading law schools (Yale, Harvard, etc.) are foisting on the public.

  9. What else would she call them? They're illegal!
    A rose by any other name is still a rose. (...would smell as sweet. I know.)

  10. You need to hear Sonia's (not Sandra) graduation speech she gave. Sounded as if she may have been drinking.

  11. It’s like at the local prison, you can't call them "prisoners" that would be insulting. They are to be referred to as "inmates". We wouldn't want to offend the criminal’s tender sensibilities. This is how liberals think.
