I put this in the political threads because IMO it is political. I think it's crazy that you can now be fined for threatening to call immigration.
It is now illegal to threaten to call the immigration authorities on an undocumented person or to refer to said person as an “illegal alien” in New York City.
The city’s Commission on Human Rights issued a 29-page directive last week explaining the new rules, which apply to workplaces, public accommodations, and housing. The punishment for violations includes fines of up to $250,000 per offense, according to the New York Post. But here’s the catch: To take action against a so-called perpetrator, the city must first prove his or her actions were motivated by hate.
Say 'illegal alien' in New York City, and you could pay a $250K fine
