There is a simple solution, require ID for the background check that illegals can’t provide.

The OP makes the ruling potentially a good thing: the decision can be used as a precedent to make exactly that case, and possibly strike down the federal law that prohibits out-of-staters from buying arms in other states. Similarly, it can be used to strike down state laws (e.g. NJ, MD) which prohibit people from out-of-state from bringing “illegal” firearms into the state. After all, as the OP says, if an illegal alien can legally do it, a lawful citizen ought to also be able to legally do it.

How is it that an illegal alien from Guatemala or Mexico can attend a university as a resident, but a citizen from another state cannot...?

The 7th circus' ruling was that illegal aliens have a 2nd amendment right, but that laws prohibiting illegal aliens from possessing firearms or ammunition are constitutional.
This ruling supports all other gun control laws passed by the states or the Feds prohibiting types of firearms, ammunition, full capacity magazines, etc.
This is not a good ruling, as it supports infringing on 2A rights up to and including complete prohibition.
