I can appreciate you point too, Ricardomath. But as long as there is a way to be "legal" comparatively, comparatively, it's a proper adjective.

In the post preceeding mine, the epithet "illegal" was used as a noun.

I'll believe that such use (whether used as an adjective or a noun) is legitimate when I start hearing it used habitually to refer to people who have let their parking meter expire.
