(American Military News) New York City has targeted speech it believes is used to dehumanize" illegal immigrants by banning the use of the word illegal alien and prohibiting the use of threats to call immigration authorities. Last Thursday New York City Halls Commission on Human Rights issued a 29-page directive on discriminatory offenses against immigrants. The directive explains examples of a number of types of offenses and imposes a fine of up to $250000 per offense the New York Post reported. The official Twitter account for the City of New York confirmed the citys new guidance on legal enforcement against discrimination and announced investigations of four cases where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) was invoked as a threat or form of harassment.
