Should we end birth right citizenship?

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Birth Right Citizenship was meant to protect the offspring of the former slaves.
It was never meant to give citizenship to the offspring of illegal aliens.
Clearly illegal aliens are abusing the law and exploit the American Taxpayers.

At minimum, it should require the mother to be here legally.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

oh shoot, i thought this was regarding giving the newborn the right to choose which one of the three genders it wanted to be.

 

[RealDave]

We should end it. To be born a US citizen, you need a parent to be a US citizen.

 

[JGalt]

In order to be elected President, you have to be a natural-born American citizen. So yes, we should end birth-right citizenship.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Only about 20 percent of countries in the world automatically grant citizenship to those born in their borders, according to data from the CIA World Factbook.

Feel free to start working on removing the 14th Amendment. Our founding fathers in their wisdom left us a system for changing the Constitution.

Good luck getting 75% of the states to agree to anything.

The current abuse was based on a crap court ruling.


Just reverse that crap ruling and we are good to go.


Way too late of course.

But what they hell, got nothing better to do than try.

Interesting. Australia, Armenia, Austria, the Bahamas, Belgium, Bermuda, Bulgaria, Burma, Cambodia, China, Columbia, Denmark, and through the rest of the alphabet, the majority of countries in this world don't grant citizenship by birth.

Actually the 14th Amendment doesn't have to be changed because it was never meant for illegal aliens.
It was meant for the former slaves.
We just have to stop misinterpreting it.
BTW why are the Democrats for illegal immigration?

Same reason the Repubs are, they like the cheap labor.

the next time i am born, i will declare myself as a black female with the sex drive of a white male rabbit

 

[BluesLegend]

For people who willfully enter OUR country illegally and break our laws HELL YES we should end it.

 

[easyt65]

Of course we should end it.

 

[Nia88]

I don't think it should end entirely. I do think the parents should have to be in the country legally though.

Just “interpret” around it.


It’s a living, organic document, right? The states never intended it to allow anchor babies. Things changed since Reconstruction. It’s no longer necessary. Fuck getting an amendment, right?

It's a legitimate discussion to have.
