The Wong Kim Ark decision was about the legal status of the son of two Chinese immigrants who had legal status within the United States. What's happening today is a far cry from that. And another thing, Wong Kin Ark didn't go from a hospital maternity ward to the local social service office for his welfare either.

Congress need only pass a law clarifying that anchor babies are not US citizens and then forbid the courts to rule differently on the matter. (yes, congress has the power to keep the court from ruling on anything)

My daughter was born and raised in Germany to a German mother and an American father. At the time (not sure what the law is now), a child automatically received the same citizenship as the child’s father. So even though she was born in Germany, she was considered an American citizen until the age of 12, when her mother requested German citizenship for her.

"Since the Supreme Court’s 1898 decision in the Wong Kim Ark case, the American legal system has recognized that almost everyone physically born in the United States becomes a citizen at birth."

*sigh*... no, it hasn't. Only people who are here LEGALLY

I saw Judge Jeanine slap down some boob on her show on this very point. He tried to imply that Ark’s parent’s were simply “Chinese immigrants.”

If you read Wong Kim Ark, there are at least two direct references limiting the decision to granting citizenship to children of parents lawfully in the United States. Also, there are numerous references to the parents being “domiciled” in the United States. In the legal parlance of the late 1800s, there was a clear distinction between “domicile” and “residence.” One could have many residences, but only one “domicile.” A “domicile” is your legally established home, in the state where you consider yourself to be a citizen, the one and only place where you are registered to vote, and the address to provide to the IRS for filing taxes, are examples of determining “domicile.”

An illegal alien by definition cannot be “domiciled” within the United States.

Any “Just Law” in the USA is suppose to ALWAYS promote Virtue (since Justice is the Queen of Virtue). It is our underlying principle of jurisprudence-—”When Law ceases to be Just, it ceases to be Law”. Justice Marshall stated-—any law that promotes evil is “null and void”—— and has to be removed by any judge or any politician immediately. (Nuremberg stated same-—that all unjust law needs to be NOT obeyed——it will collapse culture to have evil, unjust law.)

Now-—any “Law” that promotes the illegal entry into this country for reward is evil law and has to be removed yesterday. YOU CAN’T PROMOTE EVIL WITH A “JUST LAW”.

That is exactly how the evil Progressives destroy America——by allowing evil law (Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes removed Virtue from Just Law -—LOL. He removed “Justice” from our Justice System......which is an impossibility.) Cicero stated it-—that with evil “Laws”, collapse is inevitable. Without Virtue (Justice), there is no Freedom possible.

BUT-—that is what these Progressives (Marxists) do-—destroy Just Laws to promote evil and collapse. ALL LAW which promotes slavery (welfare) are UNJUST LAWS——they coincide with STALIN’S Constitution-—NOT OURS-——and OURS is STILL the Supreme Law of the Land-—even though the Satanic Marxists who sit on SCOTUS today threw OUT the Supreme Law. (They need to be in prison for Treason).

All Just Law is RIGHT REASON (not promoting irrational sodomy acts) according to Natural Law Theory-—(Laws of Nature and Nature’s God).

Our legal system has been co-opted by Marxists in the early 1900s-—all convoluted “law” (loopholes, etc. is unjust, evil law)——and we HAVE to throw OUT all the UNJUST, UNEQUAL “Laws”——like the Progressive tax-—etc-—all UNCONSITUTiONAL LAWS.......special protections for soodomizing others-—UNCONSTITUTIONAL——giving special RIGHTS to lawbreakers-—UNCONSTITUTIONAL——it is easy to clean out all evil law-—make them “Null and Void” NOW-—like Justice Marshall stated was NECESSARY. All Just Law promotes TRUTH, Justice, and God’s Laws (Natural Law Theory)) as stated-— “the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God>”. The Marxists replaced God with Stalin’s Constitution——and they CAN’T do that.....the Supreme Law of the Land is our Constitution-—not Stalin’s.

All judges who eject the Constitution should be removed and placed in prison immediately. Tort reform has NEVER been done-—it has only gotten so irrational and evil, we now have evil Vice like Sodomy promoted in our “Just Laws”..

Promoting evil in “Just Law” will collapse culture (Cicero).

My son was born in Sweden. Not automatic citizenship. He has to live in Sweden for five years and then apply for citizenship.

We log all our time in Sweden so he can apply for citizenship if SHTF here.

But things aren’t going all that well in Sweden either.....so where to live?
