In response to the Society of Professional Journalists’ call for news reporters nationwide to drop the term “illegal immigrant” from their news coverage to avoid offending Latinos, Fox News‘ Megyn Kelly sounded off Wednesday on America’s growing obsession with political correctness:

Knowing what my parents and fellow immigrants from their era went through to just get the okay to come to America legally, it sickens me that people now think is their right to come here illegally, receive benefits, and then have the nerve to protest that they aren’t receiving more. (My parents , who had relatives to sponsor them, waited 7-years to get the okay to come to America legally.) Their sponsors were responsible to help them with any needs or emergencies for 5-years, not the government. And the first thing they did after securing a place to live and a job for my father was to enroll in English classes in night school, where they met other immigrants from all over the world with similar experiences that they remained friends with for a life time.
Just earlier today I spoke with a gal who came here about 7-years ago with her family through legal channels. She was amazed how easy we have made to come here and how we immediately extend any and all benefits to immigrants… legal and illegal. She said it sadden her because if cheapens the dream and makes takers out of those who come the wrong and are takers by nature.
This relaxing of the system and requirements is not what the American people want. It is what the globalists want to create first of all a North American Union (just look how well that idea has worked in Europe… now in ruins) and then ultimately to move us to a New World Order with one global government.
Progressives, which include Obama and almost everyone in the White House, use Political Correctness and word policing to program us, shame us into submission, and change words and terms to make negatives more palatable like changing Global Warming to Climate Change and Illegal Immigrants to Undocumented Immigrants.
We are standing at the edge in so many areas and every American must decide whether they love this country and their rights and stand up for the law and the Constitution or whether they want to swept up by the likes or the Progressive Movement, the United Nations and people like George Soros and Henry Kissinger who want to make us all equal pons in a world system.

FEEL SAFE? TWO YOUNG GIRLS CLIMB US/MEXICO BORDER FENCE IN UNDER 18 SECONDS
Remember Homeland Security Secretary Jane Napalitano’s mantra from last year the border is “as secure now as it has ever been”? (See here and here.) No one better show her the following video, which claims to show two young girls tackling, and conquering, the U.S./Mexico immigration fence in under 18 seconds — by hand:
Video: Over in 18-Seconds
The video comes from the creator of a film called “The Other Side of Immigration.” Interestingly, the goal of that film and the above video is not meant as a statement on the necessity of increased border security. Rather, the film bills itself as a documentary purporting to show the plight of Mexicans, why they are flocking to the U.S., and an alternative theory on how to stop illegal immigration.
“The film explores why so many people leave small Mexican towns to work in the United States and what happens to the families and communities they leave behind,” the film’s website says. “By understanding ‘the other side’ of the story, we’ll begin to think about new and more creative ways that the U.S. and Mexican governments can work together to solve our undocumented immigration problem.”
According to the YouTube video’s explanation, “new and more creative ways” include investing in Mexican infrastructure.
“How many greenhouses could we build for the cost of that wall?” the video’s creator, Ray Germano, asks. “If we invest in Mexico, people won’t want to leave.”
Germano currently holds a Ph.D. from the University of Texas and a master’s degree from the University of Chicago. In his bio, he wonders if Americans would turn to illegal immigration to support their families under the right circumstances:
I wonder, however, how many Americans wouldn’t hesitate to violate the immigration laws of a foreign country if doing so meant vastly improving the life chances of their children. Would you think twice about migrating illegally to Canada, for example, if the U.S. economy was in ruins, your children were destined for a life of poverty, and there were plenty of high-wage jobs to be done in Canada?
The description ends with a final question: “Would spending a dollar to reduce poverty in Mexico be a more effective way to reduce undocumented immigration than spending a dollar to build more fencing along the border?”
However, neither the author‘s bio nor the video’s description say anything about the deadly drug cartel violence gripping Mexican border towns, which many cite as evidence for increased border security and consistently enforced immigration laws. Those people, like the video, also note that the money spent on the fence is worthless without accompanying enforcement.
