If two people cross the border illegally and conceive on Texas soil, is the product of that conception a citizen? I mean, it's a baby, right?

yes. that's why they are called anchor babies.
don't even have to conceive. just need to be born. that's why illegal immigrants try to come here to give birth.
but according to the left, this country is a huge piece of shit.
Yup and they can live off the welfare system as long as they keep popping out more little brown turds
The United States is one of the only places in the world with citizenship by blood OR land, independently. Hell, there have even been arguments that a woman who goes into labor and had to deliver a baby in an embassy in France might have an American kid (though parents would likely reject it for French citizenship)
no because the parents need to be citizens to begin with, if they get caught with a kid in American soil, they will be sent back, ignore the retards in here who know jack shit
So if Immigration caught an illegal immigrant and she could prove the microscopic zygote in her womb was conceived after she crossed to the U.S., conservatives would be a-ok with her staying here?
Go look up jus soli
Nope, they love their grey area. It's not a bug that there will be an age gap between citizenship and autonomy. It's a feature.
woosh
conceived here does not mean anything. being born within our territory does. it also doesn't mean "anchor" because we will deport the parents and keep the child. there was a story about a mother who was deported and we kept the child and it was to illustrate that you can have your babies here, they will become US citizens, but YOU will not be "anchored" to them and we will deport you. all you're doing is giving us a free humanoid.
