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.

Sokal-style hoaxes work for religious postmodernists, but (post) modernism is the real hoax Modernism in art and architecture, and postmodernism in philosophy are, like religion, insults to human intelligence.  Unfortunately, many people fall for their hollow propaganda. The "Sokal Affair" was a hoax whereby a man called Alan Sokal submitted a postmodern-sounding article to a postmodern journal.  It turns out that the English you hear isn't just unintelligible to you, but it's unintelligible to the people at the journal as well.  But if it's unintelligible, it must be profound, right?  The journal quickly accepted it, not knowing that it was all fake B.S.  They then got embarrassed when they were told that it was pompous-sounding drivel. Religion has done the same thing.  When people can't understand something, they generally think it's much more profound than if they can understand it.  If a priest speaks Latin, wears some weird costume, and sp...

The Islamic State has beheaded at least 21 Christians in Libya.

Whenever a Muslim brings up the Crusades, I have to laugh to myself.  Christians have done horrible things, including in later crusades against Constantinople and the Cathars in particular.  However, get this.  The Islamic State militants said, "Safety for you crusaders is something you can only wish for" right before butchering Egyptian Christians. It seems that many Muslims haven't taken a single history class.  If they had, they would have known that Christians existed in Egypt for 400 years before Islam.  (Heck, they were even around to murder Hypatia, perhaps the last major ancient female philosopher.)  It was the Muslims who were the "Crusaders"...yet almost nobody will admit to this.  Muslims instigated a merciless war against Christian Egyptians until they were overcome and under Islamic domination.  They did this to people across the world, from Spain to India...massacring any who resisted.  They tried to destroy the Byzaintine Em...

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 H...
