Take the BCs away and throw them out.

Please don't say that, that is not what is being proposed. We are talking about policy going forward and not striping the citizenship of those who have it.

There are countless veterans who have served honorably in our armed forces, current and former law enforcement officers and countless other citizens in good standing who would be effected.

The dems and the GOPe will try to frame the argument as you have because no rational person would support such a immoral policy.

You have a difference of opinion with me about what the 14th amendment says with respect to the “jurisdiction” part.

In the case of the military veterans etc. you mention, this doesn’t conflict with “jurisdiction”.

BC as it has become applied in the last few decades involves primarily ILLEGAL candidates and beneficiaries. Those under military or other government approved paths aren’t what is specifically involved here. That’s what the “jurisdiction part” is all about. Those illegals who drop an entitlement baby here are extra-legal (outside the law - ILLEGAL) and not “under jurisdiction” in the sense the amendment stipulates. IOW, I’ve said nothing here that relates to those you are “concerned” about.
