Citizenship would be removed and they would then be deported unless you personally want to take them in and can guarantee the rest of us they won't commit murder and mayhem.

What power does the government have to strip Americans of their citizenship based on ethnic/religious reasons?

"What power does the government have to strip Americans of their citizenship based on ethnic/religious reasons?"

Who's advocating removal of citizenship for ethnic or religious reasons?

I think the majority of Americans would like:

1) To strictly curtail future immigration and granting of citizenship so that we don't find ourselves in the predicament of several of the European countries; and

2) To have a process to remove citizenship from immigrants who break our laws (like those currently rioting in France) and then deport them.

Would you rather keep them here and have sensitivity sessions on how poverty, racism, and cultural misunderstanding prompts them to terrorist activity or rampaging?

Since we're discussing a Eurocentric solution, it's simple, just pass a law. For example.

The American Citizenship Law

Article I

1. A subject of the State is a person who belongs to the protective union of the states of the United States of America (USA), and who therefore has particular obligations towards the USA.

2. The status of subject is acquired in accordance with the provisions of the USA and State Law of Citizenship.

Article 2 1. A citizen of the USA is that subject only who is of American or kindred blood and who, through his conduct, shows that he is both desirous and fit to serve the American people and the USA faithfully.

2. The right to citizenship is acquired by the granting of USA citizenship papers.

3. Only the citizen of the USA enjoys full political rights in accordance with the provision of the laws.

Article 3

The Secretary of Homeland Security in conjunction with the Deputy Attorney General will issue the necessary legal and administrative decrees for carrying out and supplementing this law.
