The History Of and Reason For The Ratification of the 14th Amendment Which Conveys U.S. Citizenship Upon Anyone Born on U.S. Soil

[Unkotare]

Why do people obsess over this so much? It's not going to change, so direct all the energy to more practical matters that really can be changed. It's like the people who (always!) go on about "shoot the migrants as they come over the border!" "hunt them like animals!" Well, we're not going to do that so shut up about that and try to work for realistic reforms to controlling the border. Really control the border and we won't have to give a second thought to birthright citizenship on any significant scale.

 

[DGS49]

The essay doesn't really support the current reading of the Amendment. All it says is that if Congress tries to rectify the absurdity it will be challenged in the Supreme Court.

Bring it on. I know we are right. If your parents are citizens of another country, you, the baby, are also subject to the jurisdiction of that country.

Birthright citizenship is bullshit.

People "obsess" over this because if you have no effective borders, then you have no country. If citizenship becomes a joke then you have no country.

It's worth fighting.

Then you want to talk about controlling our borders, not the citizenship of people born here. Take care of the former and you don't really need to worry about the latter. Obsess over the latter and you don't really do a damn thing to fix the former.

Its necessary to deal with both

Birthright citizenship should not apply to illegal alien children

 

[August West]

It's obvious why being born here makes you a citizen. Otherwise, you'd be a person without a country.

Hmmm. That`s not a bad idea at all. Can we just be citizens of Planet Earth? We`ve seen pictures taken from space that don`t show any of the silly borders.

 

[August West]

Think big like this murdered human being did. It isn`t hard to do. Without countries, there`s nothing to kill or die for.

John Lennon consumed a lot drugs

He was brain damaged

John Lennon consumed a lot drugs

He was brain damaged

He was one of the many who saved you from having your bones lying forgotten in some rice paddy far away. What drug did he use that`s caused more harm than alcohol?

And those bones saved libs like you to have the freedom you have today

I'm totally on board with that. I don't believe that borders, leaders, nor sovereign nations should exist.

 

[d0gbreath]

And those bones saved libs like you to have the freedom you have today

How exactly did sacrificing 58,000 young men from the USA, to lose the war against the North Vietnamese, provide me with freedom?

I'm totally on board with that. I don't believe that borders, leaders. nor sovereign nations should exist.

So you support warlords, subjugation of the most vulnerable, and never-ending bloodshed? No thanks.

We could still kill the warlords.

Psst. What about my posting facts about the Vietnam conflict is "fake news"?

 

[Unkotare]

We could still kill the warlords.
...

Who could?

 

[d0gbreath]

Who could?

That would be me.

 

[Unkotare]

That would be me.

I keep forgetting youre that pussy that doesnt like bad words directed at you while you spitting on our country,,

life must be hard for you,,

Nope. It means when someone resorts to vulgar insults and name calling, they've surrendered that their substantive arguments have no intellectual weight.

not always,,

in this case its her that started the name calling while ignoring the facts of the issue in favor of ideological rhetoric,,

have a nice day,,

We have never ending bloodshed right here on a daily basis. Perhaps we can learn something from countries where people don`t need to pass through gun detectors to enter buildings.
