...?
What are "illegals"? I'm fairly certain 'illegal' is an adjective but you and the headline appear appear to be incorrectly using it as a countable noun.

Its a little rude but these are illegal immigrants we’re talking about. They dont deserve a lot of respect.

Criminals deserve basic human rights too or all anything a tyrannical government has to do is define you as “illegal” and they can carry you off never to be seen again. With those rights ought to come at least the minimal respect a human life deserves.

Some would consider that terrible of you.

Can you explain how referring to a human being as "an illegal" can ever not be derogatory? 🤔
