should the US be able to take the second citicenship away from people who commit a crime? sould we be able to kick these people out of the country and not allow them to have the priviledges of an american citizen?

This is a very interesting question, and requires a personal opinion.
My personal opinion is that that yes, depending on the crime, we should be able to deport a person if they commit a crime. Committing a crime is a violation of our laws. When someone becomes a naturalized citizen I believe they take an oath of allegiance to the United States and its consitution. If that person violates that oath, then they should be stripped of their citizenship. If that happened to all of us.. I bet we would be more apt to obey the laws of our country.
Thats just my opinion of course.
