Nor is Roberts. He's in the same boat. His adopted children are not US born. None of that would make a legal difference in the case of those children. But it certainly lends a prejudice to their findings on a personal basis.

I think they thought the risk to society was too great to have millions suddenly at risk of being deported. Intent of the amendment be damned.

Please, PT Constitutional scholars, tell us how Justice Clarence Thomas is wrong.

Quite an accomplishment for a justice to be hated by both political parties.


Not really. Ideologues don’t care about process and structure. A “good” justice, in their estimation, is one who decides cases based on what they want to happen.

Most people are ideologues.

If I ever run into her parents again I’ll be sure to let them know what a failure they raised.

Sure thing in the late 1860’s when those amendments came into being literally right after the end of the Civil War they addressed slavery in the other two amendments but the 14th was really referencing Guatemala lol see yourself out boy wonder

I’m not surprised that you are so stupid as to be unable to conceive that it was written for persons other than the slaves. They say that 30% of the population is so stupid they can’t score high enough to join the Army; I was bound to run into one of them sooner or later

The 14th Amendment was not created so anyone and everyone can come here, especially the millions coming here now with malicious intent and hatred for this country, to shite out a bunch of babies to automatically be "legal U.S. citizens." If you think the 14th Amendment was conceptualized and passed for that purpose, to intentionally harm, invade and destroy the USA... YOU are a fricking retard. frick you.

I can only hope you are trolling or that the government cut your balls off at birth. I shudder to think of you furthering your lineage.

For certain, every future Republican Supreme Court potential nominee should be asked what they think of the birthright citizenship case.

if they refuse to answer or give some sort of bullshite "well it could come up before the court and therefore I can’t answer," they should be summarily crossed off the list.

Nice copy pasta. What’s your point? Or do you even have an original thought you wish to state?

How do we decide intent?


Oh IDK...Maybe by the writings that the Author left us as the true intent of the Bill. When read it sounds pretty much a Black and White issue to me.

I guess you skipped the very next line where I said exactly that. And it is a black and white thing. It says “all persons”. Not slaves. All. Persons. If you think they were too stupid to have meant only slaves but worded it to say All Persons, then you must not agree with the rest of the constitution and amendments.

Naw, I think Roberts and Barrett are showing the American people who they are.


Roberts lives for these moments. Ever wonder why he chooses himself to write the opinions on big cases? He’s an egomaniac who thinks he’s the smartest kid in the class. ACB is being groomed to be his replacement.

+1

I see the same thing with clergy, when their children are queer.

A family friend has granddaughter who thinks she is a man... both parents are ministers. You can imagine what it's done to their theological, spiritual and moral compass. It has slowly turned them into liberal hacks... the 'Love is all you need and will save you' kind, instead of the 'Christ is the only way'. Knowing more than case of this, it has led to the corruption & rot from within and has led to a schism of the church.

It takes a strong individual to withstand that attack. I know some who have -- and may God Bless them.

If you agree with a SCOTUS judge’s vote 100% of the time you have a horrible SCOTUS judge.

It's the definition of the legislative intent doctrine, you fricking retard. You're here bloviating about SCOTUS decisions and you don't even understand legislative intent. You're the moron, not me.
