Republicans want review of birthright citizenship - Yahoo! News The Republicans fight so hard to keep the Second Amendment from being amended even though its purpose has nothing to fucking do with the aims of gun rights activists, now they want to change the 14th amendent because its suits their political agenda, fucking hypocrisy. Clint Sessions said.. "I'm not sure exactly what the drafters of the (14th) amendment had in mind, but I doubt it was that somebody could fly in from Brazil and have a child and fly back home with that child, and that child is forever an American citizen," Sessions said." No shit Clint, planes didn't exist when the 14th Amendment was drafted. On the same token, I doubt that the drafters of the second Amendment had in mind the same idea that gun rights activists today have in mind. Fucking hypocrites! They're for the Constitution only when it suits them.
The 14th was added so that the children of freed slaves and Native Americans were recognized as American Citizens. This was the original intention of that Ammendment. I for one would like to see it ammended so that the children of illegals do not gain citizenship. It would take a 2/3rd majority of States proposing this for an ammendment to happen. Don't know that it ever will but I sure hope so. Jeeze.
