re: #214 Dark_Falcon

That is regarded as appropriate for illegal immigrants. Puerto Ricans are American citizens and Cubans who reach American soil are allowed legal residency. Thus ‘self-deport’ is non-operational for both.

Think Lidane hit it rather nicely on the head, we live in a nation where the term “illegal immigrant” does not conjure up the image of a white guy whose work visa expired. Do you think the Cuban or Puerto Rican fellow cares that the cops who just hauled his ass in for failure to provide valid proof of citizenship mistook him as a Latino from another part of the world?
