The cartoon is meant to show the two different views on the 14th Amendment. Is it right for someone to gain citizenship just because they are born in the United States?
I think it is wrong for someone who is here illegally to suddenly become a citizen because their child was born on U.S. soil. It is something that people can take advantage of, and it can make the population grow exponentially. If someone was born here, he or she is rightfully and automatically a citizen, but their parents should not get the advantage of becoming citizens. But then they will be separated from their children! No wonder it is a conflicting dilemma. Probably having a child over here is the last resort of illegal couples who find it too impossible to become citizens through the means of a normal process.
