Why should birthright mean automatic citizenship? Shouldn't it be earned?I think she meant for people who cross the border specifically to give birth.... :9:

Ooooooh I could maybe get on board for that.
Make everyone pass a citizenship test, if you flunk, you get kicked out. Should raise the country's IQ quite a bit, no more dummies who don't know US history, the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. There would be no more idiots running on the streets for Jay Leno's embarrassing quiz game. HTH could a high school history teacher not know the US Presidents? No more California airheads, no more Sarah Palins. Yep, I'm liking this idea better the more I think about it. Maybe coupon problems will disappear because cashiers and managers will finally grasp the difference between per purchase and per transaction.
Should make jobs too, for exam cram teachers. :lol:
Most of us here at cw can discuss things including politics and religion without stooping to degrading crude insults.
Charming, why not go crawl back under your rock.and I wasnt talking TO you or ABOUT you so go **** yourself
My best friend is a cop in Bensenville and every 4th of July when she pulls people over she will give them the opportunity to get out of a ticket if its a minor infraction. She will ask random questions that she feels are associated with the 4th, America, history, etc...Who was our first president? What do the stripes on the flag stand for? etc...This is the 3rd year she does this and she is appalled that the Middle Eastern, Hispanic, and other various minorities can usually answer the questions but if she asks a caucasian (shes half german half french) they almost never know the answer. When she asks the Hispanic people why they know all this stuff but can barely speak English, their response is almost always the same, they are studyiing so one day they can take the citizenship test....
You misread her post.So what I'm understanding here is a cop pulls over people for bullshit stuff - and says - Hey " seing as ur not caucasian" I'll give ya a chance to get out of this ticket if u answer questions? What the **** is she still doing on the department????? It's called Racial Profiling ... I L L E G A L - .. Ya got them all over here causing all sorts of **** w/ the "minority status" and Dunkin Donuts, and what not taking the jobs from citizens and giving it to them?? Fair - No ****in way - They all want to come into this county to be free - take a test, get a job - and boom - citizen .. That sucks IMO. Most of them do not even have a valid D.L. and there is no such thing as an "International D.L." anymore - at least not in the state of Illinois - if u are here for longer than 30 days you MUST HAVE A VALID D.L. in order to operate a motor Vehicle. I rather take the ticket - see that cop in court and sue her **** and the department.

Haha, I know this "myriad" thing is a long-dead aspect of this topic. The whole thing was nothing but a blatant exercise in hijacking. Somewhere around 4:30 that day, there was a loud whoosh! as I left, because I was happy to be leaving early, and happy for a few days off. I missed your reply.**** it, dude, you're making me have to go to Google:

I trust you're a smart guy, but I'm going to defer to the online dictionary on this one.
I am speechless. I am in tears. I am embarrassed to be an American.

popping corn....be right back!
The primary characteristic of this universe lies precisely in the inability to use categories of the real to speak about it.
