Answer:

I agree.

Explanation:

If you look in a dictionary, the word "illegal" means "that which does not obey the law", "that which disobeys". If you look at the word "undocumented" you will see the meaning "what has a document", "what is not legal". However, socially, these words have a much greater weight and meaning, especially when related to immigrants. This is because these words reflect a feeling of aversion, when used to characterize an immigrant, they say reflect a bad denotation, making the immigrant be seen as a villain, a destroyer, a disobedient, someone who will do bad things.
