My previous posts on this thread dealt with 2A rights and whether they should be restored to reformed citizens and whether there should be barriers to obtaining firearms for law abiding citizens. Adding wetbacks to the discussion conflates the issue. Illegals are illegals and they should be deported, firearms or not. Adding another level of law enforcement experienced in confiscating firearms is a slippery slope. Eventually they will come for law abiding citizen's firearms. The bottom line of the previous discussion is if you did your time, paid your debt to society, then you should have full rights restored as a citizen. Any law that infringes on law abiding citizen's ability to obtain a firearm, e.g., delay, postpone, charge a fee, etc., doesn't stop criminals for obtaining firearms. Lifelong criminals, not the reformed, will break the law to obtain a firearm. We should not give up freedom for safety, particularly when it really doesn't make us safe.
You are on the right track.
