Not going to happen. Ex post facto laws are banned by the Constitution and revoking citizenship would surely be considered a punishment. No way they would remove citizenship from anyone who already has it.

Also, why do we take in refugees when we have a policy as idiotic as birthright citizenship?

I'm a citizen because I was born here.

So were my parents.

and their parents.

and their parents.

and their parents.

and their parents.

the first American ancestor that I have moved here in the early 1700s and supposedly at least one of them married and had kids with a native so if I play that game my blood goes back even further.

But none of that matters if you retroactively remove birthright citizenship... because Im only a citizen because i was born here. My parents were only citizens because they were born here.

Your going to have to get a lot more specific about who gets fucked in this deal.

so retroactive how far?

If you strip everyone who has non citizen parents how do you reconcile people who were born pre 1776?
