    This should only be done through an amendment, after winning unanimous public support for it.

    Right now only like 25-30% support it being ended.

    It should be that way.

    But 4 justices disagree. 3 would rather see it handled by executive fiat and 1 would prefer Congress to outlaw it through legislation.

    I wish they'd just start saying slurs out loud instead of dressing their hatred up with rhetoric. I think I'd actually respect it a bit more if they dropped the façade

    Same as it's been for 150 years. Something tells me you never cared or complained about this prior to 1-2 years ago.

    Justices Thomas, Alito and Gorsuch do not believe in reading the clear text of the Constitution.

    This argument works so much better for Europe. USA is a nation of immigrants, the ancestral ties are native americans, the cultural ties is a melting pot of so many places, gov was setup to be decoupled from religion/ethnicity, land of the free/opportunity, etc

    This conservative commentator publicizes his willful ignorance, conveniently ignores the 14 th amendment

    [​IMG]
    The Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees citizenship to virtually every person born on American soil, a principle the Supreme Court has upheld for over a century.
