The Library of Congress has just announced that they are eliminating the words “illegal alien” and “alien” from its international subject headings due to mounting pressure from liberal wackos and open immigration blowhards who claim the terms are offensive to immigrants.
One would think that being a library, the Library of Congress would respond by opening one of their many dictionaries and reading aloud the definition of “alien”: a foreigner, especially one who is not a naturalized citizen of the country where they are living.
Leave it to the left to turn factual definitions into a political outrage — and leave it to our government to bend to the will of the least informed, most obnoxious voices in the country.
Statistics and facts have long been under attack from the country’s PC Social Justice Warriors, as now any piece of information that doesn’t conform to their leftist agenda is sexist, racist, or some combination of the two.

I’m in Australia and it’s the same here. People are afraid to voics an opinion for fear of being labeled and attacked by the left.
Then illegal pharmacist should be removed as well
Give us a break. Freedom to express ourselves correctly.
Just because they eliminate the word doesn’t change the fact that their are ILLEGAL aliens. Let’s not fix the problem let’s just eliminate the word. Of course this has to be coming from the Democrats.
New term for illegal alien is ‘Democrat’..
Library of Congress definition. The largest library in the United States, located in Washington, D.C., and maintained largely by federal appropriations. Its original purpose was to provide research facilities for members of Congress; today it serves the public as well. And it has the power to define what Congress does not like or add, delete, or change words that define words as Congress would like to define as they desire.
THAT DOESN’T MAKE THEM LEGAL…
POLITICAL CORRECTNESS VIOLATES OUT 1ST AMENDMENT RIGHT.
Now what do we call foreigners who enter our country without permission or a visa?
The height of stupidity of Dem. “political correctness”.
Yeah. I’m still saying ILLEGAL ALIEN.
