Location: United States

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Illegal Immigrants Trapped After Man Becomes Stuck in Pipeline

Crossposted from DeMediacratic Nation:

Hmmmm....

According to the LA Times:

"More than a dozen illegal immigrants were briefly trapped inside a cross-border pipeline structure Tuesday after a man got stuck in the narrow passageway and had to be rescued by San Diego firefighters.

The immigrants were crawling through a passageway connecting a Mexican-based industrial gas supplier with a holding tank on the U.S. side, said Lauren Mack, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement."
Headline: "illegal immigrants," in the article they metamorphosize into "immigrants" then "migrants;" seven of which were apprehended with the belief being the others returned to Mexico.

Do they have some PC rule at the Times that says they have to use all these different terms for "illegals" in each article written?
