Let me save Roberts the trouble...

The liberal justification will be this: asking this question forces people into self-incrimination, which is unconstitutional. Therefore, the question violates the Fifth Amendment protection and must be removed.

Nope.

If I am asked, I will respond “4 people live here, 3 are citizens” which in no way is self-incrimination because the question does not address whether the non-citizen is a lawful resident alien.

Using that theory, if I was to be audited by the IRS, I could refuse on those grounds.

~~~~~~~~~~

Does the 5th Amendment protect CRIMINAL INVADERS?

If so, if we were invaded by China during election time, all their soldiers could vote...

And walla!

Because Congress would then look at population and not citizenship, Congress would have to reapportion its seats and weight them according to the new more heavily populated districts, to where there are the most illegals!

It has happened before, but this nation and our Constitutions survival, has really come down to one single unelected black robed gutless wonder!
