[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This does seem to be open ended. How many generations do we go back? Did my great great great grandparents come here legally? How does one prove that in a court of law that is over seen by a radical supreme Court?

If you can take birth rights away from a first generation person you certainly can take it away from an 8th generation person.

Once you cross the Rubicon of taking birth rights away there is nothing stopping republicans from stripping birth rights from any US citizen. [/quote]

It will not be retroactive. And once it goes through, if and however that may be, it will not be retroactive.

There are several European and UK case precedents of devices countries seating citizenship by birth this way and it was fine.  They set a near date and then going FW from that date it ceases. Your kid gets the citizenship of their father and mother, and can apply for U.S. citizenship later.  [/quote]

How do you know if it will be retroactive or not. The constitution is very clear that birthright citizenship applies to pretty much everyone (except for the children of foreign diplomats). If the government can magically revoke the constitution then there are no safeguards that this will not apply retroactively. The constitution has basically been destroyed, the President has almost unlimited immunity, and courts can no longer issue universal injunctions for blatantly unconstitutional actions. It doesn’t matter if your family has been in the US for 3 generations at this point. Most people will be unable to protect their rights if  the government decides you are not a citizen. You will be expeditiously shipped off to a foreign prison to never be seen again. [/quote]

The amendment or scotus language would state the date henceforth.
