American Exceptionalism

People comment about other people’s problems, Mark. I do this. You do this.

That’s why I said, that not every current law is also right. And I bet, that the child would get the citizenship of its parents country if they would apply for it in the embassy.

I recently read a post on bbad about a 14 year old girl which gets deported, despite being in the US for most of her life. She has my empathy, but again, the main fault lies by her illegal migrated parents and maybe also the government, if they knew about them for years already and waited so long to deport them finally.

Do you support birthright citizenship, Gunda? I do.

Her parents were asylum seekers. So, they didn’t really come here illegally. It seems that never went anywhere. They never seemed to have any communication after that. It seems Brasil had no clue this was goimg to happen.

I do think we are arguing on two different things. You seem to be arguing your opinion, not our law. Until they can overturn the 14th amendment, this is an illegal action. I’m arguing both. I think mortally, expelling US citizens to a country they have no rights in is worse than not doing that.

Got to get to the root of the problem with your first Reggie.
You’ll just get silly again. You’ll just get soft.

Presumed both parents are legal citizens, yes.

There is nothing, absolutely nothing that we do the same.

Can’t accommodate your rate of bone loss anymore Dan.
Save face.

I want to proportion correct and express myself properly through my appearance. I want to focus on me and not your problem of not doing the minimum requirement for any action.

Don’t matter the issue and whatever good you proclaim you’re doing. You are in the negative balance

That isn’t birthright citizenship. Birthright citizenship means you have the “right” to citizenship if your “birth” took place in that nation. If there is a parental requirement, that isn’t birthright citizenship. And even Germany doesn’t require both parents.

Yawn. You asked for my opinion. Not for the current law in the US or Germany. For me, the current law is not good for any country.

I wasn’t arguing with that, Gunda. You have every right to oppose birthright citizenship. I was simply pointing out that you are using the wrong terminology. Birthright citizenship is the concept that if you are born in a country, you are automatically and irrevocably a citizen of that country, with no other conditions in play. You clearly oppose that, even though you stated you support it. Many people oppose it. You are not alone on that topic. I just suggest you use the correct terminology.

I support birth right citizenship. In America it is in the Constitution.
