And how far do you go?
My great-grandparents jumped ship in New York harbor rather than risk being 'rejected' at Ellis Island.
So, they were illegal aliens, too.
Should I be deported to the Ukraine, 100 years and three generations later?
Good question.
If the SCOTUS reviews subject to the jurisdiction thereof you'll have your answer.
No.
To say that individuals should be held liable for the sins of their fathers and forefathers is the same logic that the liberals use to justify reparations.
In that spirit, "anchor babies" who have received automatic citizenship under U.S. law are now subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, and thus stripping them of their citizenship would be grossly unfair. Now, if their living non-U.S. citizen parents are still illegally present here, that is a totally different story.
