@AverageJoe1 saidIf you want to get technical, they are all people.
If you want to get technical, the phrase illegal immigrant is an oxymoron. I do not think that someone who invades our country is an immigrant. You see, that puts him on the same field as a group of immigrants. They are ALL immigrants? Let us not insult the immigrants

XPhi fraternity at SW Utah Univ invited 12 humans to become pledges, working towards acceptance into the brotherhood.
They are all at a pledge meeting on Tuesday, and a person (human) from Kansas walks in uninvited. Follow me here…
Is that person (human) a pledge?
I kill you with perfect analogies . Thanks for the opportunity to sharpen my wits.!
Do you get it?
@AverageJoe1 saidThen you have invented your own meaning of the word:

"im·mi·grant ˈi-mə-grənt
: one that immigrates: such as
a
: a person who comes to a country to take up permanent residence
b
: a plant or animal that becomes established in an area where it was previously unknown
Both of these words come from the Latin migrare (“to move from one place to another”), and both have definitions in English that hew closely to their etymological roots,

So if you want to get technical, you are wrong.

A person who comes to. hahahaha. A person who violates a border. Are they the same thing? You gonna use your 'they are the same' gambit? A human is a human, is a human!??!?!?
For you to make ANY sense, you have to define what 'comes to' means , as you write above/
YOu are embarrasing yourself. I will help.
Julio comes to a certain restricted location. Are you with me.... He is admitted.
Valdez comes to the same location, but not admitted.
Did Valdez come to the same location??
No, but he made his way in anyway.
Did he 'come to' , or break into ,that location.
Give it up. I used to grade papers on this stuff.
@AverageJoe1 saidYes, " a person who comes to a country to take up permanent residence" necessarily must cross a border.
hahahahahaha

If you don't know what a word means, you should just say so rather than try to create your own meanings like Humpty Dumpty:
""When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean- neither more nor less."

You see, the individual who walks into the frateryhouse, follow me, crossing same street (border) as the other human, is not entering the house AS a pledge, nor entering to ‘take up permanent residence’ Can I enter your house with no permission to take up permanent residence?
Give it up. And Jesus, do you think one person clicks on stupid links? Don’t research on my account.
And debate judges hate it.
