Illegal immigrants have just been shown the door. A federal court judge has erred on the side of reason, deciding that the children of illegal immigrants are not entitled to US citizenship. This must be disappointing for illegals looking to suckle on American rights and entitlements without the hassle of actually becoming Americans or troubling to pay taxes like the rest of us.

The Liberals perverted the 14th Amendment so they could get votes. It was enacted so insure that freed slaves were given citizenship not so some baby born to an illegal could be an American citizen.
They can keep their families together when they all get deported. I’m sure not one for breaking up families.
DAMN RIGHT THEY’RE NOT!
You are right. My finger hit the wrong number—I can’t always get it to do what I want it to do.. The statement was referring to the 14th amendment and the anchor baby interpretation that has grown and has been exploited over the years. In 1866, Senator Jacob Howard clearly spelled out the intent of the 14th Amendment by writing:
Every person born within the limits of the United States, and subject to their jurisdiction, is by virtue of natural law and national law a citizen of the United States. This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons. It settles the great question of citizenship and removes all doubt as to what persons are or are not citizens of the United States. This has long been a great desideratum in the jurisprudence and legislation of this country.”
The phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” was intended to exclude American-born persons from automatic citizenship whose allegiance to the United States was not complete. With illegal aliens who are unlawfully in the United States, their native country has a claim of allegiance on the child. Thus, the completeness of their allegiance to the United States is impaired, which therefore precludes automatic citizenship.
The correct interpretation of the 14th Amendment is that an illegal alien mother is subject to the jurisdiction of her native country, as is her baby.
Over a century ago, the Supreme Court correctly confirmed this restricted interpretation of citizenship in the so-called ‘Slaughter-House cases’ [83 US 36 (1873)] and in [112 US 94 (1884)]. In Elk v.Wilkins, the phrase ‘subject to its jurisdiction’ excluded from its operation ‘children of ministers, consuls, and citizens of foreign states born within the United States.
The 13th , 14th & 15th amendment all flow together to develop a process for insuring voter rights in one way or another. So, if you want to develop a new class for vote purposes the 14th is your primary tool while referring to the 13th & 15th to try and back up ones argument.
Keep the family together , you can do it , there are several options !
Finally someone sees that you don’t get a positive from 2 negatives.
Finally a judge that makes sense
It’s part time to change the law

The Chinese are doing this big time they just don’t stick around. They fly here for vacation, not a lot of paper work. Have baby go home. Baby US citizen. Why they are doing it I don’t know. Hotels in California cater to them big money.
