All very interesting in light of Real ID requirements, but then not every state is compliant with the Federal overreach in name of increased homeland security.
Who do you think gave them the idea?

Here's another 14th amendment debacle for you guys to pretend is not a consequence of the 14th amendment.
Yes, we are.
Come back again if they win.
If you want to repeal the 14th Amendment, pass some petitions around. Make an argument. Get out in front of that grocery store! Make your voice heard!
Just remember - had there been no slavery, there would be no 14th Amendment. If we screwed up, we screwed up. Fix it.
Some lawyers will do anything for money.
Someone should really do this to Mexico!
500 days.
I have asked you, politely, to please remove me from your 14th Ammendment ping list.
Like the Queers? That's also a 14th amendment consequence.
To make your voice "heard" you would need weeks of coverage on all the broadcast news channels, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and FOX. Nothing else has even a prayer of getting the necessary information out there.
Why would you advocate bailing the ocean with a thimble? The days when a message can be heard by preaching on the street corner, or even the Courthouse steps, is long over.
Just remember - had there been no slavery, there would be no 14th Amendment.
That's nonsense. Had the South simply quit fighting and submitted to rule by Washington D.C., there would never have been a 14th amendment. Again, Lincoln was willing to keep slavery for the first 2 1/2 years of the War.
Had there been no Lincoln, there also would never have been the 14th amendment.
There are a lot of things that could have prevented the 14th amendment, but that nexus of history is entirely a consequence of Lincoln and what he set into motion.
Watch out, Georgia....look how this has *worked out* for Mexifornia.
California is overrun with illegals, have given them EVERY entitlement imaginable...AND issued DLs to illegals.
Good luck EVER turning CA back to any form of normalcy. A good, solid conservative wont have a chance of being elected in that state, with the majority of citizens living there voting Dim...and illegals running the show.

“Where L.A. goes is where the rest of the state goes and where the rest of the country goes,” he said. “We announce, demographically speaking, the future for the rest of the country.”
I will try to remember. I don't have a "ping list", I simply remember the handles of people who argue about this issue, and type them in when I want to provide them with another example of the folly of what they support.
I can understand why you wouldn't want to be reminded of another mess caused by the badly written 14th amendment. I wouldn't want to be reminded of more consequences of the disaster that I am defending either.
WHO are the lawyers?
Aren’t THEY citizens?
Let’s get their NAMES, PHOTOS and BUSINESS ADDRESSES
Oh, I see now. You think that I expressed support for the 14th Ammendment at some point in time. You really are going to have to produce the evidence, or I am going to have to add you to my “kicked in the head by horse” ping list.
I don't think that the South should have ever begun fighting. But, they though that "secession" was the only way to delay abolition. Who knows if they were right about that? It's anybody's guess how long they could have continued owning people if they had won their rebellion. But, they lost and it was that loss that made the 14th Amendment seem to be politically possible and necessary.
I think you're probably right about the chances of repealing the 14th Amendment, but I suspect that you're wrong about the reasons. The fact is that it is more popular than you think.
Read the 1st Amendment and ask yourself if, without the 14th Amendment, states and local governments might be able to deprive you of many of your most basic rights. Whose power is limited by the 1st Amendment and whose power is limited the the 14th?
A lot of people don't trust state and local governments any more than they trust the Federal government when it comes to protecting basic rights of speech, press, religion or assembly. Politicians are politicians and they don't like criticism.
next up, CCW and OC by illegals. Folks, in any sane nation that would be an armed invasion. But here, we wring our hands about offending them.
Nucking Futs.
