What makes you a citizen is that you were born in America. Nobody questions this, nor do they challenge your rights, as an American.
The problem is - if we look at the parents and not the actual birthplace, if we let the state determine who can and cannot be citizens - then what is protecting you from having the state declare you to be a non-citizen and thus not entitled to the rights that you have?
The solution, to the problem, and this is going to be radical -
DON’T LET THEM IN. You can’t guard the barn door after the horse has escaped. If you want to protect America - protect it at the border! If that means erecting a fence - then so be it. If that means having patrols, so be it. That’s part of the obligation of the federal government - to protect the American borders.
How are you protecting americans by stripping away birthright citizenship? You might think that it’s not going to apply to you, but that’s not the case here, is it?
Never give yourself or your friends something that can be abused by your enemies.
You are incorrect. What makes you a citizen is that you were born to parents that owe their allegiance to the United States of America. That is why children born to foreign diplomats on US soil aren't USC's.
Nothing is being stripped away. We are going back to the original intent of the Founders, the US Constitution and in particualr the 14th amendment.
