TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- A state lawmaker is coming under fire for sending what he thought was a funny e-mail message to his colleagues.
Some people do not find it very amusing and want him to make a public apology.
Rep. Don Brown, R-DeFuniak Springs, sent a message from his state e-mail account that said, "Don't forget to pay your taxes - 12 million illegal aliens are depending on you!"
Brown said the message was intended to be humorous and to remind people about the upcoming tax deadline.
He apologized and said as far as he's concerned, he's done with the issue.
But members of the Florida Hispanic Legislative Caucus are taking exception to Brown's e-mail, calling it inappropriate and saying such e-mails have no place in the Florida House.
"That term, illegal alien, is extremely insulting to many individuals and I think there has to be something a little bit more public and a little bit more contrite in his apology," an unidentified member of the caucus said.
WTF can't we call illegal aliens illegal aliens? The term is insulting to me as they exist.
