Yes. They certainly believe they are, the cops believe they are and are happy to arrest them when necessary, and the courts believe they are and will try them when necessary.

Try that with an ambassador’s kid.

If they are living under assumed identities with falsified identifications, social security numbers, or even living completely off the grid, are they truly living under the full jurisdiction of the US? By failing to comply with the laws and regulations they are hiding their very existence and not complying with the US Jurisdiction.

I could easily see this coming down to the type of documentation that you have.

So, it appears that the US constitution can be interpreted differently by different people.

Ma'am, we have this thing called SCOTUS...

I agree with you 100%. But even SCOTUS interprets the US constitution differently at different times in history.

Slaves are not people. Yes they are
Abortion is a right. No its not
Separate but equal is ok. No it's not.

etc.

Abortion has never been seen as a right. Privacy was. A liberal court hid abortion under the privacy umbrella in the 70s but most judges including Ruth Vader Ginsburg have always acknowledged that it was some weak ass shit that wouldn’t stand up to a serious and unbiased review. And it didn’t.

At most Trump get two votes on SCOTUS. At most.

Maybe.

As I said, I don't think he's doing anything but refocusing the conversation. And maybe a finger in the wind for Amendment support.

Ah, did not know that. Thanks.

But I think that my comment still holds. There are a lot of decisions where the Supreme Court has reversed itself or done a different interpretation of the Constitution.
