Sorry, but this is nonsense. Pro-life is a moral issue for me. Jus Soli is a legal concept...

And the "legal" consequences are the murder of innocent children, which makes it a MORAL issue. Slavery was a "legal" concept, the consequences of which are the use of other human beings as property, which made it a MORAL issue. As one insightful commenter put it:

"Roe v. Wade is cut from the same cloth as Dred Scott v. Sanford: Certain classes of people are property.

well established in common law, and explicitly stated to apply in the US by the Supreme Court in Rogers v. Bellei. I can be 100% in favor of the moral, and still recognize the law of land. This is a false construct on your part to bring in unrelated issues.

The boundary you seem to want to impose between them is the false construct. Just saw this yesterday. Sums it up imo.

So how about answering the question? Are you Pro-Life, or are you Pro-Abortion?

Threadjacking, yet again. I have already said it’s a moral issue, and morally, I believe in life. So that’s the end of your trying to distract and muddle legal issues of deportation and jus soli with abortion.

We are discussing the legal definition of deportation, and whether a citizen child was indeed ordered deportated. I will no longer respond when you try to change the subject.
