Let's talk about slippery slopes.
We're on one.
It begins with telling people they have no value because their gender does not fit in a box.

As a sailor, I learned a few things about the Uniformed Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). A lawful order cannot violate the Constitution, it cannot violate the rights or morals of the one being ordered to perform the action. Any service member can decline an unlawful order.
And.....go.

I suppose, from a certain perspective, everyone born here is a birthright citizen. I guess the only ones not being deported are the ones who took the oath of citizenship.
