How can you do anything if you're detained by ICE? If you have your birth certificate or passport in a safety deposit box you can't access it when you are detained.

There was a guy who had his US passport card on him. ICE still detained him, claiming it was fake. And they're desperately trying to get rid of due process, so there's no opportunity to correct them.

if they have done it to one person then they are not “trying” to get rid of due process, it’s already gone. :(

And if there's no more birthright citizenship, how will any of that help anyway?

At some point very soon, I see everyone having to appear before some official, fill out pages of forms, pay a fee, and take an oath in order to be registered as a citizen.

Only American citizens are able to hold a passport so that would be a way to prove it. In fact, for most people, your passport is easily the most valid form of government ID that you can get.

unless it’s claimed to be a fake

Unless it’s taken or until it expires

Start shooting. You were already dead when they decided to target you.

Maybe without basic rights but not dead

If you're getting sent to a concentration camp in El Salvador never to see your friends or family again, you're gonna wish you were dead
