It would be great if it did pass. It won’t be the democrats, but the republicans that will keep it from passing- the RINOS….

Other LEGAL Non-Citizens of various stripes would be covered as the 2nd doesn’t say only “Citizens”. Like Free Speech, or religious expression, it applies to everyone.

Not really. The preamble reads:

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Also, Article IV, Section 2 reads:

"The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States."

Notice we are talking about "citizens" here, and not illegal aliens.

"Constitutional carry" means that the Second Amendment applies to the states as well as to the federal government.

On every article in the Bill of Rights (except for rkba) conservatives are against applying the Bill of Rights to the states. Only when it comes to this one do they suddenly morph into the American Civil Liberties Union.

Hmm.
