Fundamental,enumerated Constitutional rights are not limited by state borders.

Are non-Resident aliens under the same compact (the Constitution) as Citizens?

I think not.

Is "non-resident" just a weasel word for illegal aliens, or really any non-resident. Such as someone who lives somewhere else?

It's code for "bodyguards for the politically connected or the wealthy who aren't current or former law enforcement". (Current and former law enforcement have a special card that allows them to carry in all states - so much for equal rights).

Ummmm...non-residents aren't citizens.

So much stupid in two words.

..., “non-resident” means U.S. citizens from other states.

Somebody is more stupid than a rock.

That’ll teach gavin. Not. There are counties near me where one could pretty easily get one. If you don’t mind listing the 3 of your choice with make, model, caliber and SNs. No thanks. Oh, and 10 rounds max.

Nice to know you think the insult is necessary. We're not talking IRS tax code.

Here is an excerpt from the ruling. It clearly states the plaintiffs are concealed carry holders from other states, not the alien residents that live inside your head. You can decide what you're dumber than.

Individual Plaintiffs are residents of Pennsylvania, Idaho, and New Mexico. [Hoffman Decl., Doc. No. 17-2 ¶ 2; Orrin Decl., Doc. No. 17-3 ¶ 2; Sensiba Decl., Doc. No. 17-4 ¶ 2.] Each Plaintiff maintains membership in the Firearms Policy Coalition, which is incorporated in Delaware with a primary place of business in Nevada. All individual Plaintiffs maintain validly issued concealed carry licenses issued by another state. [See, e.g., Sensiba Decl. ¶¶ 2–3.]

It’s not my fault California judges are as dumb as a box of rocks. Bitch at them, not me.

As stated before, conceal carry permits are admistered by the states, and are often divided into resident and non-resident permits, meaning residents and non-residents of the state. Some states do not allow non-resident permits or recognize other state permits. It’s quite the stew of laws that the feds should supersede.

BTW, Cally tax law, where resident and non-resident come into play, comports with federal tax law...Citizens, though in this case State Citizens, and non-Citizens.

I don’t care about tax law.

Ammoland geared the story to firearm aficionados, who know about resident and non-resident CCW permits. That is who the language was geared toward.

And? You SAID your snippet was from the ruling. Trust, but verify.
It WAS nice of Ammoland to provide a link to the order.
A simple statement however, for example..."the link to the case/decision, provided HERE", would leave no doubt.
Words couched in a hyperlink usually lead to another article, not the source you need.
