In reply to the discussion: I just listened to Trump for an extended period [View all]BlueKota
(5,375 posts)67. I just rechecked the information I found on line for dual passports for Italy and the
site said if my grandparents became naturalized in the U.S prior to Mom's birth. my mother would be disqualified from Italian citizenship because her parents were already naturalized U.S. citizens. Had they not been naturalized until after she would have qualified and so would my sister and I.
I accept the rules but it just seems like such a small technicality. I mean my DNA is Scottish, Irish, and Italian. The only ones who have North American ethnicity are the ones with Native American ancestry. My ethnicity itself didn't change because of man made laws.
I belong to those three countries by virtue of the blood that flows through me, that should matter more especially if assylum becomes necessary.
