America should be allowed to debate the immigration crisis on the state level. President Barack Obama created our amnesty crisis, and other countries should have no say in how we protect ourselves!

Now, some Texas counties are so overwhelmed with the problem of illegal aliens, they are REFUSING to give birth certificates to children of the illegals. Mexico is so angry about this big move in Texas, they fired off an angry letter saying it might hurt our country’s relationship with our neighbor to the South:
The refusal of some Texas counties to issue birth certificates for children born to undocumented parents could threaten the state’s relationship with Mexico, the Mexican government warns.
The notice comes in a brief filed in support of illegal immigrant parents who are suing Texas after being denied birth certificates for their U.S.-born children – even after providing ID cards, known as “matricula,” issued by the Mexican Consulate, Fox News Latino reports.
The Texas Tribune reports some Texas county registrars won’t accept the consulate-issued identification because it isn’t considered reliable.
Some Texas counties were accepting the consulate ID cards until recently, when they were ordered to stop by the Texas state health services department, the Tribune reports.
“[It] not only jeopardizes their dignity and well-being, but could threaten the unique relationship between Mexico and Texas,” the Mexican government said in a brief tied to a lawsuit filed against the state by Texas Civil Rights Project and Texas Rio Grande Legal Aid.

To hell with Mexico! Anchor babies are given citizenship due to an incorrect reading of the 14th Amendment. These patriotic leaders of Texas counties are simply doing what is necessary to keep Texas safe. And Mexico needs America much more than we need them.
@DailyCaller interesting that Mexico wants their citizens to be US citizens. Hmmmmm

The Mexican government has no shame they are a failed nation. The Mexican people come to America to work because the Mexican government is incompetent and corrupt. Send a message to Mexico take care of your own backyard before complaining about your neighbors yard.
Go Texas.
These parents chose to enter the USA Illegally. Not our fault they do not have proper paperwork.
If Texas county registrars won’t accept the consulate-issued identification because it isn’t considered reliable then so be it.
Asking parents for their Legal Immigration papers along with their birth certificate should not be a problem. Or maybe their passport……
Just order fake birth certificates from Hawaii. It worked for the President!
Screw Mexico. They need to talk to and complain at their oligarch families who plunder and steal the wealth of Mexico.
How can they sue Texas when they are ILLEGAL. If you are not a legal citizen of this country, you have no juice here, go the F back to Mexico
Birth certificates are a sensitive issue with our POTUS Obama cause he doesn’t have one either. Tell the Mexican Government to go pound sand. I would ignore anything they did or said. Sue us, what a joke!
Lest the whole world forgets,This country belongs to We The People. We fought and spilled our blood to keep it free, and WE decide whats going to happen here, and How its gonna happen. If you are Not a citizen, you have no say in our country and No rights to Anything. The only way you get it is to become a citizen and assume our culture and everything that goes along widdit. Just because you are Here, dont mean you automatically get to vote in our elections. You gotta pay some dues, the right way. You wanna stay inna luxury hotel? With all the Room service? It isnt free! When We’re paying for it, We decide how its done, Not You!……..800# Gorilla.
Great idea, not giving birth certificates to illegal alien births. If the President can ignore the immigration laws the states and individual citizens can ignore giving birth certificates.
Texas has always had good relationships with Mexican people, but we’ve had our differences (to say the least) with the Mexican government.
Anyone found to be here illegally should be deported immediately. If they are here illegally they have no American Rights!!
Is the border crisis really a red herring to give the media something to report on while Obama is committing more treason against the American People.
Shoot on sight illegal aliens? Sounds extreme but it may be like shooting a burglar that illegally enters your house. Extreme circumstances sometimes require an extreme response. Who should decide?
I personally think they should issue a shoot onsite order for anyone entering the U.S. except at recognized border crossings.
I am tired of illegals coming here and thinking we owe them something and that their babies and children deserve citizenship along with other benefits just because they were born here. Their kids are nothing but little criminals just like their mommy and daddies are. Our country does not owe them a thing and Mexico can take their criminals (illegals) back. We don’t want them. If they want to come here legally that’s different.
Mexico is trying to dump their garbage on us.
To hell with all rat-bastard illegal aliens. Shoot’em, fry’em, drown them in the RIo Grande, just get rid of them. If Mexico doesn’t want them; why should we? Let’em eat the proverbial cake!
The woman in Kentucky is right, The supreme court is the one who got it wrong. May GOD forgive us . As to the Texas situation BUILD THE WALL AND ARM IT.
This is exactly the same situation as the clerk from Kentucky that won’t issue a marriage license to same sex couples because she doesn’t think it is right or proper, but she is breaking the law by doing this. The same allspice here, if you want to stop issuing birth certificates to babies that are born in the US to parents that aren’t American citizens, then change the constitutio, make it legal. We will have total chaos if people just obey the laws that they agree with and ignore the laws that they don’t agree with. Am I right? Of course, I am. I’m surprised at Political Insider for encouraging people to break the law.
When is the right time to stop the hordes…now or after it is too late?
This will make the Illegals think twice about making anchor babies.
It will also make Mexico re-think their immigration laws.
If TEXAS PAYS FOR THE BIRTHING OF THE BABY. TEXAS GET A COURT ORDER CLAIMING TITLE TO THE BABY AND SEIZE IT FOR PUTTING THE BABY UP FOR ADOPTION.AS THE PARENTS ARE UNABLE TO SUPPORT THE BABY UNDER STANDARDS OF TEXAS .If the parents protest; they are deported along with the baby. DEPORT ALL PARENTS AND BABY THAT HAS A BABY IN TEXAS EVEN IF THEY PAY FOR BITTHING
Up to 70% of babies born in some Texas hospitals are born to illegals. Even Snopes can’t disprove the claims http://www.snopes.com/politics/immigration/parkland.asp
Oh boo-friggity-hoo! Who cares what they think? They can’t even run their own country – now they want to run ours?? What are they going to do? Take back their taco recipe?
Mehico can go to hell for wanting to run OUR country. Mehico has some of the tightest immigration laws in the hemisphere. Who are those asshats to talk about Americans, Texans, or anyone else for that matter?
Sue, according to your statement “If a baby is born over seas it is usually what ever nationally the father is” means that Ted Cruz can not be the United States President because his father was not a citizen of the United States when he was born. I love your analogy. Knock Cruz off the list for Presidential Candidates.
Since they are illegal I don’t think they should be able to use our court s. After all they are here illegally. If a baby is born over seas it is usually what ever nationally the father is. Except in Germany where they have dual citizenship. When the child turns 18 they have to choose which national city they want to claim.
Stick to your guns Texas !! Among other things, the One thing we don’t owe them is citizenship !!
Come in legally or don’t come at all !!
Mexico has stricter immigration laws than we do, but doesn’t care if numerous people from all over the world cross into our country from Mexico. This must stop and if it take them paying for a strong wall and/or fence…so be it. They don’t deserve to have their anchor babies become Americans citizens or government benefits or our jobs either.
F#$% them if they can’ t take a joke. We’re spending two billion to build a wall for mexico to protect them from other mexicans. And all WE get is 20 or 30 miles of Texas and Arizona marked “Travel At Your Own Risk.” And we want to elect ANOTHER one? Oh, HELL No.
How does Mexico treat illegals in their country? Do they give free welfare to all illegal aliens and accept children of illegal aliens as Mexican citizens? You better believe they don’t. Their policy is don’t do like we do do like say. They throw illegals in jail.
We don’t want ANY relationship with Illegals, who cross here on someone else’s Social Sec. #. GET OUT!
Jimmy, you would have to be a total IDIOT to misconstrue “Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” of the 14th Amendment. When BIGOTS read something I guess it is not that hard to misconstrue something. What part could anyone with no common sense or education misconstrue about All persons born. Looks like Republicans and Texans are the only ones who do not understand All person Born.
How long is the US going to be taken advantage by a drug dependent Government like Mexico.
They must be thinking these Gringo’s are loco just give them some chili peppers and they will do what we want.
The problem with the 14th amendment is that it is too ambiguous.
When it was amended to the constitution in 1868 the writers were worried about that
and suggested it could be misconstrued….The Supreme Court recently proved that.
I will send them money to help out and I would stand a post on the wall,,BUILD THE WALL
Better start a national non-profit account for the state of Texas. As much as I agree 1000%, once the feds come in and strut their power of the state financially, Texas will lose. It they dig their heels in, they will need money to survive what the feds cut off. (Sorry!)
The only answer to that good for Texas, keep it up guys and maybe the reast of the country can learn from you.
OF COURSE, Mexico wants THEIR citizens to work for American companies. THEY pay no taxes, get free food (stamps), and (section 80 housing and send American dollars back home for more ILLEGALs to come here, to send MORE dollars south. The Mexican government even makes flyers on how and where to cross the border.
I wish we could respond with a “like” to those we agree with but do not want to write a comment.
If “undocumented immigrants” were “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States, they wouldn’t be here. The United States could simply tell them to go home and they would. Or the United States would tell them not to enter the country or stay in the country without permission. and they wouldn’t.
Certainly newborn infants are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. They are under the jurisdiction of their birth mother. Because they aren’t subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, the 14th Amendment does not apply. It didn’t apply to the members of indigenous tribes that were here before the United States was here. Obviously they were born here but they were not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. They were given the opportunity to become United States citizens later on.
States or counties within States are not required to obey unconstitutional mandates. They are not required to issue birth certificates to people not under the jurisdiction of the United States. The Supreme Court long ago found that States were under no obligation to enforce federal laws. The states cannot interfere with the federal governments enforcement of federal laws. If the federal government wants to issue birth certificates, it can.
So, Mexico is saying that the relations will be threatened between our two governments for this action by some Texas counties. I believe the relations have already been threatened by the fact that the Mexican government is doing nothing to stem the tide of illegal aliens coming over the southern border of the United States. If they would do something to stop the flood of illegals coming from Mexico to the Unites States. It seems somewhat like the big boat lift flotilla from Cuba some years back. We are the top people as some would want us to believe. We are getting the menial workers. The ones who can not get a job in Mexico because there are none to be found. So Mexico allows them to come up here where they are not a drain on their resources, but are a drain on ours. So we are already having our relations with Mexico strained, almost to the breaking point.
Please resend that in English. That is the only language I know as an American!
¡que te den por culo! mexico…..NUFF SAID……PERIOD…..KTN…..
Tell Mexico we will let the anchor babies stay if they (Mexico) will pay for them and the upkeep of their parents. Does anyone in Mexico know what illegal means. They grab our people even if they are there legally. Finally a state that will stand up to Mexico, God bless them and I hope it works.
Maurices, thank you for mentioning ARTICLE 1, SECTION 8 Clause 16. To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress. You have made it crystal clear to any person of average intellect that the 2nd Amendment does not guarantee all citizens the right to bear arms. The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution reads: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Since Article 1, Section 8 Clause 16 only give Congress the power to organize, arm, and discipline the Militia, that means only Congress may take the the weapons away from the militia. The 2nd Amendment was made to keep Congress from taking the weapons away from militia members. Remember what the Government give the Government can take. All those so called want to be militias members are actually terrorist groups, due to Article 1, Section 8 Clause 16, only gives Congress the power to form a Militia, not a private citizen, governor, or any other politician.
Great response, Maurice!!!
A few quotations directly from our Constitution. After you review these very clearly stated responsibilities of various branches of our government and individually for elected and or appointed officers serving, it becomes crystal clear to any person of average intellect that We the People are routinely doubled crossed by said public servants. Article I. Section 7. All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments as on other Bills. Remember Obamacare?” Section 8. Paragraph 15 and 16. To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions; To provide for organizing, arming and disciplining, the militia, and for governing such part of them as may be employed in the service of the United States, reserving to the states respectively, the appointment of the officers and the authority of training the militia according to the discipline prescribed by the Congress. ON illegal entry across our borders. Article IV. Section 4. “The United States shall guarantee to every state of this union a republican (not democracy) form of government , and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be concerned) against domestic violence.” Article VI. Third paragraph: “The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United ?States.” 14th Amendment purpose intent was to grant citizenship to the children of freed slaves. No where in this amendment can be found the terms “natural born citizen”, only “citizen”. The “anchor Babies” have occurred due to highly questionable interpretation by “do good zealots.” They hang their hat on the phrasing “subject to the jurisdiction.” By every imagined though process one must realize that a new born babe is the very essence of defenseless. Logic dictates that when an illegal pregnant woman crosses our border and shortly gives birth to her baby, the new born child is a citizen of its mother’s country. Plain and simple. Only the mentally retarded could or would ever think it right and just to reward a defenseless new born babe citizenship. The new born is part and parcel of the crime committed by the illegal entry into our country with the express purpose to acquire citizenship for the child. lee1233
build a wall and keep them all out…Any questions?
Texas is in the right according to 14th ammendment of the constitution which is mis-interprutted by so many.
Great information Marilyn. Thank you for sharing. Most people today did not have to learn this information in school. I remember learning this in Middle School. I wonder why they do not teach this today? I guess they are to busy teaching sex ed or something….
The XIV amendment, Section 1 states: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION THEREOF, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.” Foriegn nationals are NOT SUBJECT of the United States; thus their children born in the US are NOT SUBJECT of the United States.
How hard is it to understand that there are two requirements that need to be satisfied to be a United States citizen;
1 – born or naturalized.
AND
2 – subject to the jurisdiction.
It might also be noted that Senator Jacob Howard, the author of the 14th amendment, SPECIFICALLY stated, “… This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the Government of the United States, but will include every other class of persons.”
FAILURE TO ACCURATELY INTERPRET THE 14th AMENDMENT IS PURELY INTENTIONAL.
