This thread completely nukes your post.
Not in the slightest. The trivial observation that Congress is allowed to make modifications in the stated provisions for special cases does not extend to illegal aliens.
It's quite obvious: if illegal aliens and their children are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States or of the individual states, then they cannot be charged with any crimes they commit, they cannot be taxed, they do not even have to do so much as pay a parking ticket.
So Congress has a choice: to determine that illegal aliens are subject to the jurisdiction of US law enforcement or to absolve them from all legal responsibility and sanction save for deportation - which will require a lengthy process in itself since it will then be opened to all kinds of complicated new legal issues.
It's actually amusing to see the same people who rage that illegals get away with crimes (while simultaneously raging about the number of illegals in our prisons) suggesting that giving them a complete free pass is the solution to all our woes.
