14 states may target birthright citizenship

Arizona state politicians will introduce model legislation this week to encourage states to prevent children of illegal immigrants from being granted citizenship under the 14th Amendment.

Lawmakers in at least 14 states have said they are committed to passing the legislation targeting birthright citizenship. Arizona’s anti-illegal-immigrant bill, SB-1070, was also based on model legislation that could be easily copied by states, and at least seven states are likely to pass bills similar to the first Arizona immigration overhaul this year, according to one analysis by an immigrants rights group.

Arizona state Senator Russell Pearce will unveil the bill Jan. 5 in Washington, D.C., the Arizona Capital Times reports. The paper says lawmakers in Alabama, Arizona, Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas and Utah have said they want to introduce similar legislation this year.

Pearce argues that the “original intent” of the 14th Amendment was to grant citizenship to freed U.S. slaves, and that it was never meant to apply to the children of foreigners. A Phoenix New Times writer, however, argues that lawmakers who originally passed the amendment took into account the cases of children of Chinese immigrants in California as well as children of gypsies when drafting the measure. A 19th-century Supreme Court precedent also backs that interpretation, though no Supreme Court case has yet dealt with the issue of offspring of illegal immigrant parents.

14 states may target birthright citizenship

The term birthright citizenship sounds so wonderfully politically correct. Lets call it what it really is, and lets call those that are enjoying this birthright citizenship what they really are, anchor babies.

Say it with me, anchor babies. There…now doesn’t that feel all better?

Once upon a time there was a great need for the 14th Amendment, and it had NOTHING to do with anchor babies born to ILLEGALS that were in this nation, uh, ILLEGALLY.

The amendment states: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

The 14th Amendment was, in it’s original intent, designed as a tool to guarantee the citizenship of children of former slaves following the Civil War, and was ratified in 1868, long before anyone could have imagined the problems faced by the USA today, and all of the problems brought on by those here ILLEGALLY, and by their spawn.

Ali Noorani of the immigrant-rights group the National Immigration Forum told The Lookout that he believes leaders in more states will try to counter the thrust of the birthright initiative by adopting resolutions that eschew state laws cracking down on illegal immigration.

I can’t begin to tell you how happy I am to see the state of Texas on the list of states looking to crack down on the abuse of our Constitution by those that have NO love of this nation and only seek to ensure themselves a place of security where they can raise their anchor babies to be proud whatever-American they happen to be.

Religious and political leaders in Utah recently signed a compact advocating for a “humane” approach to immigration, which other states could copy.

Not ALL of us are as humble, as loving of our fellow man and as tolerant as are the Mormons, and once Utah is as over-run as is Texas and other border states, after a few Mormon farms are looted and burned to the ground, after a few Mormon girls are raped and killed, after a few ILLEGALS set up drug operations a block from Temple Square, maybe those wonderful Mormons will wake up and smell the coffee.

I have long been called a racist by a few select folks, simply because they don’t like my uber-strict, and deadly idea of what border security should be.

I have stated repeatedly, the border needs to be manned by American troops armed with heavy automatic weapons, with orders to shoot ANYTHING and ANYONE, man, woman or child, that is crossing our border at anything other than a LEGAL crossing.

I don’t have a problem with the people that like to make their unfounded accusations, calling me a racist, mostly because I can’t get so much as one person that calls me a racist to show me where the definition of racism encompasses ILLEGAL as a race. And I have no problem with their accusations mostly because those that do throw the race card at every opportunity have rendered themselves totally silly and irrelevant!

You see, I don’t give a damn what color these ILLEGALS are, be they black, white, brown, yellow or purple with golden polka-dots and hot pink stripes, it makes NO difference to me in any way.

These people are hostile INVADERS, hell bent on taking the United States down as they turn it into a mirror image of whatever dung heap they crawled out of. And once upon a time, a nation met hostile invasion with massive force, and committed itself to repelling those invaders.

No more it seems, but, what can you expect from faux conservatives, apathetic couch potatoes and America hating, bleeding heart libbers?

Arizona Sheriff: Border Patrol Has Retreated from Parts of Border Because It’s ‘Too Dangerous’

(CNSNews.com) - Sheriff Larry Dever of Cochise County, Ariz., one of four Arizona counties contiguous with the U.S-Mexico border, said Friday that the U.S. Border Patrol has pulled back from parts of the border in his and neighboring counties because manning those areas has become too dangerous.

“And you frankly have Border Patrolmen-and I know this from talking to Border Patrol agents—who will not allow their agents to work on the border because it is too dangerous,�? Dever told CNSNews.com in a videotaped interview. “Now what kind of message is that for crying out loud?�?

Dever, a native of Cochise County, has been in local law enforcement in the county for three decades. He was elected the county sheriff in 1996.

Dever stressed that the Border Patrolmen are ready and willing to perform their mission of securing the border, but that Border Patrol managers had determined that in “some places�? the danger was too great and they wanted to avoid the risk of an international incident such as a cross-border firefight.

Now I have to ask, WHO are you going to believe? Sheriff Dever or this assclown?

Immigration and Customs Enforcement chief: President Obama not soft on illegal immigrants

The Obama administration is committed to tough enforcement of the nation’s immigration laws and is not “pro-amnesty,” the director of the nation’s immigration-enforcement agency said Thursday.

The Obama administration removed a record 380,000 people during the past fiscal year and made a priority of deporting illegal immigrants who pose the greatest threat to public safety, said John Morton, director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Morton was in Phoenix to announce that ICE agents had just completed a three-day sweep in Arizona tracking down illegal immigrants with criminal records. He also defended the agency’s track record amid criticism that President Barack Obama’s administration has been lax on immigration enforcement and hasn’t done enough to secure the border.

Morton said this week’s operation in Arizona was the largest ever conducted in the state. It resulted in the arrest of 63 illegal immigrants. At least 25 already have been deported.
