All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Now, what does this mean? Is a visitor to the USA "subject to the jurisdiction" of the USA?
As explained to me and frequently brought up here, “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof”, ONLY applies to foreign diplomats. Diplomats have immunity to our laws, every other living creature is subject to our law, can be arrested, tried and jailed or sent back to where they came from.
This seems to make sense to me.
