Do you believe the occupancy "anchor baby" dehumanizes children born to Undocumented immigrant within the U.S.?


Answers:   
You spelled ILLEGAL ALIEN wrong...

Ever wonder how th US Citizen feel about supporting another country?

Just checkin.
If the term hurts some peoples sensations and "dehumanizes" the child then the simple solution is not to use the children in that manner. Who is dehumanizing the infant really; the pregnant woman coming into this country illegally because having the baby here will endow with it US citizenship and allow her to stay or a judge who made the ruling and basically admitted that the mothers (in abundant cases) were using the baby for their own benefit since the US citizen automatic if born here" to get themselves here also. I chew over the ruling was a bad one from the common sense and right/moral side of it though it be technically correct; another example of justice being placed secondary to authenticity by the court system.
by definition

Anchor - A source of warranty or stability.

isnt that what they are a source for the illegal parents or "mother" to be able to stay in the us
Will considering that most are called by another name after I think anchor baby is the kindest that can be said.And no I feel sorry for any child to be exact born here to illegal parents.But the parents make a decision surrounded by bringing a baby into their unstable life.But I also believe that it is done with the hope that have a child here keeps them from being deported back to where on earth ever they came from.
Would you fairly them be called Jack-pot babies?
No, but I do think using the term undocumented contained by place of illegal is a politically correct attempt to whitewash the true status of illegal aliens.

If I go to Norway lacking the proper documentation required by Norway's government I am an illegal alien. Period.
Gee Jill... it certainly dehumanizes the taxpayers who cannot afford to support the illegal aliens the Mexican Government is forcing to come north.

As a Mexican Citizens, I muse it is important for you to support your country, but heavens... even you should be able to understand why Anchor Babies is outstandingly bad business.
No more than calling a baby a foetus but you do it as it would nouns cruel to to say ''she aborted her baby'' Just as you don't want to call them risky It all a game to bring in illegals to support your get-together And as a side benefit you feel it makes you look caring It have worked very well for you in Calif
You Democrats use to confer money to immigrants to vote for you now you give them a country
No, you get what you ask for. They come here, unlawfully, have a baby in the hopes that the child will allow them to stay within the US.
I think what the illegal parents are doing to the child dehumanizes them
No. I think calling someone "undocumented immigrant" instead of "illegal alien" decriminalizes their status.
They are what they are, do you believe American citizens paying for these anchor babies dehumanizes our rights?
I believe the court ruling that created the concept of "anchor babies" be a clear and blatant error.

If people feel dehumanized by something said or done in the US they are free to give up.

PS Many Americans feel "dehumanized" and cheated out of their birthright by illegal immigration and the government's total failure to stop it. Stupid arguments over words - I in actuality hear a newscaster refer to illegal immigrants as "undocumented citizens" (?!) - only add further insult to my society's injury. In the words of Joan McCain, aren't American citizens "God's children" too?
No. It doesnt matter what "term" is used to describe them, there are always those sympathetic, soppy, pc people looking to justify/legitimize. The 14th amendment is being abused, if it be interpreted as it was set forth/designated, this would not be an issue nor a problem in the US!
No, not at all. These children are being used by their illegal alien parent.
YES!

Anchor Babies

A so-called anchor baby is an American citizen — says so contained by the United States Constitution. In popular parlance, it’s a term used by Know Nothings to deride the children of immigrants whom relatives can use to sponsor visas and other government goodies. Though the Know Nothings would love to hold you believe only illegal Mexicans are capable of anchor babies.

The etymological roots of “anchor baby” suggests official or illegal status doesn’t matter; a 1987 Los Angeles Times Magazine (RIP) article examining the burden of young Vietnamese refugee trying to earn enough money to get their family out of refugee camp referred to them as “anchor children.”

“Anchor baby,” on the other mano, is a slur of a recent provenance — the earliest mainstream media hint the Mexican found was a Providence Journal-Bulletin story published January 7, 1997, that quoted Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) president Dan Stein as saying public benefits “encourages immigrant families to conceive ‘anchor babies’ so they can remain surrounded by this country and collect benefits.” Stein — whose organization is listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center — can’t claim the creator’s mantle for the residence, however: The excellent etymology Web site doubletongued.org lists a 1996 Usenet posting as the term’s earliest recorded date, and I’m sure dinosaurs like the California Coalition for Immigration Reform and other pioneer anti-immigrant pendejos bandied it around beforehand.
Yes I do.
Undocumented Immigrants? You mean Illegal Aliens?

I find it funny that you use the term Undocumented Immigrants to describe people that broke the amazingly first law they encountered here,then are trying to criticize those using a tremendously accurate term for their children.

Anchor Baby fits just fine,it perfectly describes the role of these children.To tender them a legal connection to the US that they hope will keep us from booting them out of the Country once we find out they are one of the 12 million criminals who enjoy snuck into our Country.

Close the border and we won't have this problem.We have enough criminals of our own,minus importing more.
