Immigration: Arizona moves to protect its citizens from a raging border war, and the administration and its activist supporters cry racism. Why is antelope protection more important than protecting American lives?

“H.I.: Prison life is structured - more’n some people care for.”
We can move on to The Big Lebowski when we run out of Arizona gems.
Ok, one last one:
Parole board chairman: They’ve got a name for people like you, Hi. That name is called “recidivism.” Repeat offender! Not a pretty name, is it, Hi?
Hi: No, sir. That’s one bonehead name, but that ain’t me anymore.
Parole board chairman: You’re not just telling us what we want to hear?
Hi: No, sir, no way.
Parole board member: ‘Cause we just want to hear the truth.
Hi: Well, then I guess I am telling you what you want to hear.
Parole board chairman: Boy, didn’t we just tell you not to do that?
Hi: Yes, sir.
Parole board chairman: Okay, then.
Policeman in Arizona house: What did the pyjamas look like?
Nathan Arizona Sr.: I don’t know - they were jammies! They had Yodas ‘n’ shit on ‘em!!
That won’t have much effect on the 10-20 million that are already here.
That didn't start in the 1980's. It started with the 14th Amendment.
Buzzards...
The 14th amendment is one of the most misquoted amendments in the Constitution . Liberals tend to use pick and choose the wording so it fits their view of how to read it. CHILDREN BORN IN THE UNITED STATES ARE CITIZENS is only half of the requirement to be born a citizen AND SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION THEREOF is the second part of the requirement. Congressional records clearly shows that the meaning of “ subject” in the 1860’s 14th amendment refers to the citizenship of the parents. Citizenship was denied to children of foreigners and aliens. The Supreme Court case of Wong Kim Ark (late 1800’s) allowed citizenship for children of parents who legally immigrated( sworn alligiance to ) to America but were not yet citizens.These children were considered Native Born Naturalized citizens. There is NO law or Constitutional amendment that grants citizenship to children of illegals. Immigration is a process that new citizens must go though in order for their children to be considered citizens. Crossing the border in the middle of the night to have a child on American soil IS NOT a Immigration process.
I need to go back and read some of the birther threads on the 14th Amendment and the Wong Kim Ark case to refresh myself on what part of that has been used to support "anchor baby" citizenship.
I've read the explanations many times, but it's been a while, and the details escape me at the moment. Are you familiar with the 14th Amendment justifier for this?
I wish everyone who supports border integrity would cease referring to the invasion as “Illegal Immigration”.
It IS an INVASION, the fact that foreign governments, Mexico in particular, are actively facilitating this invasion should be recognized as acts of war.
“Illegal Immigrant” makes no sense, it is like saying “Authentic Reproduction”, or “Genuine Simulation”.
Illegal entry is a crime, it is invasion.
AZ needs to ensure that they enforce this against invaders of all races, not all illegals are from So. America.
Everyone who supports the AZ law should obtain a Border Patrol hat and wear it.
I’ve been wearing mine for years.
You are missing an item, confiscation of ALL assets the illegal has acquired while in the U.S.
Stolen items should be returned to their owners, others should be sold at auction to help fund future enforcement actions.
That might be just but I wouldn’t support that.
Plates and registration are typically run BEFORE the stop, drivers license info may also come up.
Illegals like to buy a car with current tags on it, then never register or insure it in their names.
If the most recent registration shows a Germanic or Irish sounding name, and the driver cannot speak English (Or German, Irish) but only Spanish, it’s a pretty good clue what is happening.
thank you Arizona
Not so fast!
“and subject to the jurisdiction thereof”.
If the parents are illegals, they are not truly subject to the jurisdiction thereof, so the 14th would not confirm citizenship on their kids.
This is critical to stopping the invasion.
If we go with your argument, the parents should still be deported, and the kids put up for adoption.
Why not?
Everything they have in the U.S. is the product of illegal activity.
All of it is basically stolen, it should have gone to a legal U.S. citizen.
The job they held was at the expense of a citizen, the welfare they collected was paid for by U.S. citizens.
Illegals get advantages that actual citizens do not, they get to skirt taxes, while collecting on social welfare programs they do not pay for.
Money remitted to other countries is money taken out of the U.S. economy.
Why should we not retrieve some of these stolen assets once their status has been confirmed?
Do you also object to seizing assets from drug dealers after they have been convicted?
As for the drug question; it depends on what property and who actually owns it. But that's apples and oranges.
If the parents are illegals, they are not truly subject to the jurisdiction thereof, so the 14th would not confirm citizenship on their kids.
I know that anchor baby citizenship is hanging on something. I've been thinking it's the 14th Amendment, but I could be wrong. I've got to go back and look over the threads where it was discussed in depth.
If it is indeed hanging on the 14th, then the phrase, "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof" would seem to rule out citizenship for children of illegals born on US soil.
We've got to look at this harder. There's no way that something so glaring would have been missed for so long.

It can’t be a conservative sanctuary until McCain is defeated. As long as he’s in a power position within that state, there is no sanctuary.
I’m praying! Hard.
