Judge Roy Moore and that Controversial Word "Jurisdiction"

The 14th Amendment says any baby born in the U.S. and "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" is a citizen. U.S. presidential candidate Judge Roy Moore, "the 10 Commandments Judge", says "jurisdiction" means if you violate laws with "jurisdiction" over you, you can be arrested. Anti-immigrants insist babies of "illegals" are NOT subject to U.S. jurisdiction because their PARENTS are not loyal to the U.S. Moore shakes his head at this redefinition. If anti-immigrants succeed in this redefinition of "jurisdiction", it will end not only the birthright clause but the "equal protection" clause two sentences later, which will make slavery once again constitutional.
