Are the LeBarons Americans?

I typically don't entertain the "but they're Ameeericans" argument, arguing how we must Do Something whenever some compatriot meets up with Darwin. I argued as much as long ago as 2001: when you disown the Constitution, the Constitution should disown you. Since we have just passed the decade anniversary of Fort Hood, the Awlakis - here - were a Righteous Kill. Obama sometimes did do the right thing.

The whole LDS clade was deemed non-American the moment they fled the United States into Indian Territory. American government over this region started out as an occupying force. The Union classed it all as Territorial, and they retained a Territorial government until the near end of the nineteenth century - when the LDS mainline finally bent the knee. The LDS splinter-groups became, thereby, the white equivalent to rebel Native tribes off the reservation. So the LeBarons are not American, unless and until they formally apply to be.

A white nationalist might make a case for the LeBarons' Americanism; but if that's your definition of American, it's not (say) Ace's definition.

As for the birthright citizenship game, which the LeBarons play across the border, I hope no Americans of whatever definition are still falling for that, just coz the LeBarons be honkies.
