2 pointsCertainly children born to students in the US are considered to be US citizens. I present exhibit A - Boris Johnson, ex Prime Minister of the UK Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson was born on 19 June 1964 in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, New York City, to Stanley Johnson, then studying economics at Columbia University, and Charlotte Fawcett, an artist, whose father Sir James Fawcett, was a prominent barrister and president of the European Commission of Human Rights from 1972 to 1981. Johnson is one of only two British prime ministers to have been an American citizen

2 pointsI wonder how an Irish** citizen accused of capital murder in, say, Texas would fare if he told theTexas judge that his court had no jurisdiction and therefore had to release him to be tried in Ireland.. ** or any other non US nationality By JB's reasoning, all these executions were illegal https://deathpenaltyinfo.org/death-row/foreign-nationals/executions-of-foreign-nationals

1 pointThe presumption is they are wholly unqualified because of their inclusion in the DEI programs. "XXX people don't have the skills we're seeking, those are DEI hires" It's hateful and insulting.

1 pointA man walks into his bedroom and sees his wife packing a suitcase. He asks, "What are you doing?" She replies, "I'm off to New York. I read that prostitutes there get paid $400 for doing what I do for you for free." Later, on her way out, the wife walks into the bedroom and sees her husband packing his suitcase. "Where are you going?" she asks. "I'm coming with you. I want to see how you live on $800 a year."

1 pointI disagree with Levin's rhetoric. American police will arrest anyone committing any crime on American soil. Most of the time an American judge will convict the guilty bastard and he will have to serve most of his sentence in an American prison. For example, a few years back some Canadian criminals were digging a tunnel under Zero Avenue (Washington/British Columbia border). RCMP alerted US Customs and Immigration. US Border Patrol arrested them when they emerged from the south end of the tunnel. RCMP knew that an American judge would assign a harsher sentence (drug smuggling) and RCMP preferred that American tax-payers pay for their years languishing in an American a prison.

1 pointOK, I do jump regularly. Jumptown, just in case you want to dox me. I'm also most emphatically low-T. In fact, I'm a weak and wimpy girl, who has worn out a table saw. If you don't want people to think you're prejudiced, don't make comments that make it clear you are. If you do want people to think you're prejudiced, then fine, but we get to call you that. Anyway, the 14th Amendment was part of a package to make it absolutely clear that former slaves were full citizens, with all the rights and privileges (looked how well that worked). It was worded to include others. We don't have notes of those meetings, as we do of the Constitutional Convention. But words matter, especially in the Constitution. The concept of illegal immigration didn't really exist in the 1860's; the first exclusionary laws came well after that. So if you're born in the USA, and subject to their laws (it emphatically does NOT say ONLY the US's laws), then you're a citizen. Which also conveniently fits into the whole thing of people with diplomatic immunity not being US citizens. Otherwise, John McCain would not have been a US citizen, and neither would Ted Cruz. They both have been Republican candidates. Wendy P.

1 pointI have provided lots of evidence,, Cossey is the ONLY source for an NB6/8. There are serious descriptive inconsistencies between Cossey v Hayden and Cossey v packing card. There is actually nothing on the packing card that matches... You still ignore the packing card's conical vs Cossey's flat circular... completely incompatible canopy type,, a conical is consistent with a 24' and flat circular a 28'. That is one of the most powerful inconsistencies. If Cossey was describing the chute he packed for Hayden why is it incompatible with the packing card. Both can't be right. and Cossey customized it for a 28' calling it an NB8, that is not a container for a 24' canopy. Both Cossey and the packing car can't be correct,, it is impossible. So, based on all of Cossey's comments and conflicting descriptions it is clear that the packing card is correct and Cossey was not. Limiting what he said to the FBI only does not solve the inconsistencies. His comments outside the FBI tell us exactly what he thinks. and the chute canopy may not have even been white.. it was a bailout chute, no D rings or capewells.. Gryder's chute and canopy are still not Cooper's... not even close Gryder's container is a B-12 with a B-4 harness, D rings, Capewells and the pull moved to the other side, None of that is Cooper's, Gryder's canopy is a 1943 Hayes non ripstop... Cooper's was a 1960 Steinthal ripstop.. s/n 60-9707... also not even close. It would be nice to have Cossey's packing records. The take away is that Cooper's chute may have been found and rejected but we will never know know.. There was an orange and white chute found in the South Fork Lewis River about a mile from the Heisson store.. rejected because of orange/white but Cossey's claim the canopy was all white is unreliable. This was right in Cooper's LZ sweet spot.. perhaps a flood washed it into the River... another.. We will never know....

1 pointI believe the end of this month is the end of dz.com. Also quite my job around teh same timeframe. Time for new adventures. I will miss dz.com as a place for political discourse and getting a sense of some for what plays for my friends south of the border. Over time understanding the various characters has just made that more fun. You and I certainly had had our battles, but certainly don't harbour any ill will. That is only reserved for one person here. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and a great 2025 and beyond. I hope I am very wrong about what it will bring.

1 pointI am neither in a court of law, nor running a science experiment. Just a low T Canadian schooling a macho American special forces hero on his own country.

1 pointEvery court except the one populated by people chosen solely for their willingness to revoke Roe thought that Roe was constitutional. Just as an aside, you righties have been on another level since popping back up after the election. The avalanche of hypocritical partisan bat-shit crazy that’s been on display over the last month has been truly special.

1 pointmmm, not quite. But for OAN a decent explanation. lol. The constitution says what the constitution says. The interpretation of what it means is up to SCOTUS and changes over time. (sometimes depending on the size of the RV or the amount of the child's tuition)
-
1 pointBecause a law exists that precludes this. This law has not (yet) been challenged on a constitutional basis and is therefor in force. Hard to imagine this needs to be explained to an American. Do you not understand how things work in your country?
-
1 pointOh darlin' - you didn't even listen to your own source, did you? Levin's argument is that illegal aliens can't be tried for crimes they commit in the US. Do you agree with him?
-
1 point"Donald Trump had a landslide election" Really, 49.9% of the popular vote is a "landslide"? That guy is as unhinged as Jaybird. Incidentally, the 14th Amendment means exactly what a majority of justices on the SCOTUS says it means. It doesn't mean what Mr. Levin claims it means.
