In the wake of the Supreme Court ruling about the 14th Amendment, Rand Paul made an important point about birth tourism.

Reminder: “birth tourism” and “surrogacy networks” weren’t a thing when the 14th Amendment was ratified and signed into law.

It's well known, very wealthy Chinese businessmen are having hundreds of babies via surrogates in America, taking them back to China to rear, and when they are grown, they can come back to America and run for public office, vote or have any of the same rights as other Americans. That seems less than ideal. 

Were AR15s a thing when the second amendment was? https://t.co/TVae68uMiY

Leave it to Adam Kinzinger to make things stupid.

Sorry, A-DUMB, people invading our country isn't the same as American citizens defending themselves against unwanted aggressors. 

I'm fine with this argument if it means you will be as absolute on the Second Amendment as you are on birthright citizenship. https://t.co/Uq84RdZYBg

Oh, he would never.

Was criticizing the government on Twitter a thing when the first amendment was? https://t.co/o6E5kzaVrl

If Adam was around back then, he would have found some other way to complain and be a big crybaby.

Were radios, TVs, computers, thumb drives, microphones, or the like "a thing" when the first amendment was?

Were mail in ballots "a thing" when suffrage amendments were. https://t.co/nytEsc7GTJ

Don't expect Adam to understand all that logic. 

Yes, guns "were a thing". https://t.co/8j1XRzmGWY

And Our Founding Fathers said we get to own all the kinds. Is that clear enough?

Poor, dumb Adam. https://t.co/1DW2u01BOn

Yes, dumb*ss.
Jefferson owned Girardoni rifles, which would now be referred to by liberals as an assault weapon.

Adam just wants to run his mouth on Twitter. He has no idea what he's talking about.

It's hard to believe sometimes how truly dumb Kinzinger is. The meetings of his fake committee must have been something to behold with all the dumb bastards that were in that group. But his stupidity is stunning. https://t.co/zROJXI7MBx

Ahhh yes, another moron trying to redirect the purpose of the 2nd amendment. If the government can have it, then the people should be able to have it. That is the line. https://t.co/227DBl1FZ7

That seems fair.

Such an ignorant counter point. https://t.co/OtcAvnAH5a

Par for the course for Adam. 

Cowardly little pissants weren't a thing in 1776 either. https://t.co/g1fbjybqsy

Sure they were! Those were the redcoats. Adam would have fit right in.
