I sure as hell would not want my child to have to pay taxes to that country or obey any of its rules (conscription.) Why should my child have the right to rape another countries resources, simply because they were born there, without paying anything back?

Sounds like a hell of a fight either way. Don't think it will go anywhere except open up "dialogue", which is a common desire of any highly controversial law or topic.
