MoveOn.org is out with a new video trying to marginalize anyone who dares to stand in the way of unrestricted immigration – seeking to transform the term “illegal immigrant” into slur.

It also seeks to define opposition to illegal immigration as a “hate crime”, which amounts to an effort to do what the left does best – shut down debate – using language as a weapon.

The video specifically features video clips from conservative news outlets such as The Washington Times and Fox News and features hosts such as Glenn Beck, Michael Reagan, Lou Dobbs and Megyn Kelly using the term.

The leftist group invokes memory of past prejudices against immigrant groups, even flashing up an image referring to blacks as “n—-rs”.

It concludes saying “No human is illegal”.
