Amend This

First Texas had a problem getting their state officials to go along with the Supreme Court’s ruling that banning marriage equality violated the Fourteenth Amendment.  Now they have a problem with the provision that people born on U.S. soil are citizens.

So if this plays out the way most of these things usually do, you’re going to hear people invoking their First Amendment — and possibly their Second Amendment — rights in order to deny people their Fourteenth Amendment rights.
