Do not ever accuse me of supporting the mutilation of minor children because I disagree with you over a point of constitutional interpretation.

First off I didn't accuse you of anything, I said I suppose you support it. I said that because you have bought into the lie about the current interpretation of the 14th Amendment to believe that their intent when they wrote it and passed it, was to make all people born on U.S. soil automatic citizens.

But that was not their intent. Their intent was to make those who were brought here either as slaves or as indentured servants, who then bore children, that their children were automatically U.S. citizens.

The 14th amendment did not intend to cover births by people on visa that were temporary instruments to allow non citizens entry into the U.S., nor those who entered the country illegally, as automatically considering their offspring as being citizens. In 1964, the interpretation was not viewed to cover these instances of birth in our country with regards to citizenship, period. I remember my civics lessons from back then. They had to apply for citizenship and then follow the process. They also did not honor chain migration either.
