Among many other immigration facts that “no one knows” is this one: Exactly how many of the approximately 125,000 Mariel boatlift “refugees” have been convicted of crimes in America? The U.S. Coast Guard, which oversaw the transfer, estimated about ten thousand of them had been convicted of crimes by 2005. See Dan Horn, “Refugee Repaid Kindness with Crime,”

Justice Hugo Black wrote:

         
[T]he chief interest of the people in giving permanence and security to citizenship in the Fourteenth Amendment was the desire to protect Negroes. The
Dred Scott
decision had shortly before greatly disturbed many people about the status of Negro citizenship. [Senators] expressed fears that the citizenship so recently conferred on Negroes by the Civil Rights Act could be just as easily taken away from them by subsequent Congresses, and it was to provide an insuperable
obstacle against every governmental effort to strip Negroes of their newly acquired citizenship that the first clause was added to the Fourteenth Amendment. (Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253 [1967] [citations omitted])

                  
Although he dissented from the court’s opinion in that case, Justice John Marshall Harlan agreed on the purpose of the Fourteenth Amendment:

         
Its sponsors evidently shared the fears of Senators Stewart and Wade that, unless citizenship were defined, freedmen might, under the reasoning of the Dred Scott decision, be excluded by the courts from the scope of the Amendment. It was agreed that, since the “courts have stumbled on the subject,” it would be prudent to remove the “doubt thrown over” it. The clause would essentially overrule
Dred Scott
and place beyond question the freedmen’s right of citizenship because of birth. It was suggested, moreover, that it would, by creating a basis for federal citizenship which was indisputably independent of state citizenship, preclude any effort by state legislatures to circumvent the Amendment by denying freedmen state citizenship. (Afroyim v. Rusk, 387 U.S. 253 [1967] [Harlan dissenting] [citations omitted])

The “better view,” according to the
Yale Law Journal
, was that of Chief Justice Melville Fuller, who explained the idiocy of relying on feudal laws to determine
American
citizenship in a dissent: “Manifestly, when the sovereignty of the Crown was thrown off and an independent government established, every rule of the common law and every statute of England obtaining in the Colonies in derogation of the principles on which the new government was founded was abrogated.” “Jetsam and Flotsam: Citizenship of Chinaman Born in the United States,”
