The words "illegal alien" convey that them being here is not something we approve of and that we believe they have made an immoral choice to take advantage of what this country offers without respecting our laws. Terms like "unauthorized immigrant" or whatever convey the message that we don't take this very seriously (and maybe that's factually right).

Illegal immigration is a big problem in this country and I suppose on a macro level, we can blame our good fortune and Mexico's bad fortune for it. On an individual level, these are still individuals ignoring our laws and I have zero sympathy for them.
