The 2nd amendment now applies to illegal aliens.

QuoteThe 7th Circuit panel, however, ruled unanimously Thursday that the term "the people" in the Second Amendment's guarantee that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed also applies to those in the country illegally. The ruling, which applies in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, conflicts with opinions from three other federal appellate courts in recent years that found the Second Amendment doesn't apply to people in the country illegally.
I just don't get it. Somebody here illegally talking about their 2nd amendment rights? Those rights are for OUR citizens! Which he is definitely not.
Deport his Mexican butt, but he'll probably just come right back. Maybe we should implant radio tags in them like pet owners do now so we can catch them and keep sending them back until they get tired of trying.
If the rights only apply to citizens then they are rights that are given by our government, and therefore can be taken away by our government.
This ruling is correct. The right to use tools in the defense of life is a fundamental human right, inherent to our existence.

Nah, I have to disagree. He is already proven that he is quite willing to break our laws. I don't think we should protect criminals.
We're talking about God-given versus government given rights here. It's a God-given right to protect yourself from a criminal or any person trying to do you or your family bodily harm.
The current government officials view this as a government granted right and they want to take it away from you.
Therefore, I agree with this ruling.
If a person is a criminal, it is the governments right to take away his God-given rights since he has proven to be a lawbreaker.
Hmmm.....so the 2A extends; however, the gubbermit says it doesn't.
Quite a conundrum.
It is quite the catch-22.
You can't be deprived of fundamental rights without due process.
making a determination that someone is an illegal alien would constitute such due process.
However, we don't imprison illegal aliens and allow them to remain (usually). We deport them.
So, what, are we going to determine they are illegal aliens, then imprison them for having a 22 shell in their pants for 6 months or a year, then deport them. Just deport them and be done wasting our tax dollars. The firearms charge is just a stacking charge, and does nothing.
Even better, lets just open the freaking boarders already. We are a nation of immigrants. That is our roots and one of the big things that made us strong.
I don't have a problem with legal immigrants. What I have a problem with is the fact that now everything needs instructions in Spanish. Why move here if you are not willing to learn English?
Free market at work my friend. There is no law driving this, just capitalism.
All about Capitalism or as GHWB declared after the Persian Gulf War, "It's a New World Order."

We should be giving the new world those orders!
We should
I think our resident Muslim in Chief thinks the world should be fine if we all would just sit down and sing "Kumbaya" together.
War is the alternative.
I have no problem with war, as long as its paid for and everyone has skin in the game, aka a draft.
