How to Keep the 14th Amendment while Clamping Down on Illegal Immigration

If I were starting things over from scratch, I might add a revised 14th Amendment which, among other things, says that those born in the USA under US jurisdiction are automatically American citizens. However, it is extremely dangerous to try to go back and change amendments that give more rights to people (rather than removing ones like Prohibition). And executive orders certainly cannot nullify Amendments, and if that were possible, things would be really scary.

With that said, many people have taken advantage of the 14th Amendment to do things that are not okay. My solution to this problem while keeping the 14th Amendment intact is the following:

Any child born in the United States to two illegal aliens is a citizen of the United States. However, both of this child's parents must be deported back to their countries of origin. At that time, they will have the choice of taking their child or putting it up for adoption. The child can legally return at any time, but the illegal actions of that child's parents will go on record and it will be extremely difficult for that child to ever bring his or her parents over. Thus, the child can have the "bright future" (or not) in America that the parents wanted (if the child is put up for adoption or later migrates back to the US upon reaching an older age), but there will be no benefits for the parents for doing that.

This would conform 100% with the 14th Amendment while substantially reducing the current "cheating of the system" that is occurring.

In Defense of...Cecil Rhodes?!

You all know Cecil Rhodes, right?  He was a British Imperialist (living from 1853-1902) who founded the De Beers diamond mining and trading company.  Just this morning, I came upon a post comparing him to Adolf Hitler, and claiming that Cecil Rhodes killed at least 60 million Africans.  It has been shared 99 times.  Here is the post: https://plus.google.com/+TonyJefferson/posts/CZ6HW3AxDo6 Unlike many, I decided to do some research on it.  That is my nature.  I don't accept things without evidence given, and even when no evidence is provided, I search for evidence.  If after looking, no evidence is forthcoming, then I discount the claim unless compelling evidence does surface.  After my research on this topic (taking up about an hour of my day and 28 open tabs on my browser...but still an enjoyable time because this is what I like to do), I found that my initial skepticism was well justified and that this comparison is incorrect.  Adolph Hitler and Cecil Rhodes cannot be compare

The Dark Side of the Women's March

The recent Women's March, which took place in Washington and numerous other cities one day after the inauguration of President Trump, may go down as the largest protest in American history. Millions showed up to these events to advocate for women's issues and to protest against Donald Trump. While very few would find fault in a women's march in and of itself, upon inspecting this women's march further, some disturbing information comes to light. The Women's March was thankfully quite peaceful, unlike Inauguration Day when the group Antifa (the "anti-fascists"), although stymied by the police, were ironically able to carry out their own mini "Kristallnacht" (or rather, "Kristalltag"), smashing windows and setting fires in broad daylight. The Women's March appears to have been non-violent and there were apparently no arrests. However, problems start to manifest themselves when we look at the people who set up and spoke at th

The Sixth Great Mass Extinction and Human Survival

Recently, there have been numerous articles about a study showing that we are in the midst of the Earth's sixth great mass extinction.  Below are some quotes, and then I will give my thoughts. "Miami (AFP) - The world is embarking on its sixth mass extinction with animals disappearing about 100 times faster than they used to, scientists warned Friday, and humans could be among the first victims." "Not since the age of the dinosaurs ended 66 million years ago has the planet been losing species at this rapid a rate, said a study led by experts at Stanford University, Princeton University and the University of California, Berkeley." "The study "shows without any significant doubt that we are now entering the sixth great mass extinction event," said co-author Paul Ehrlich, a Stanford University professor of biology." http://news.yahoo.com/sixth-mass-extinction-us-study-210749359.html This is sad, although it's not news.  I
