Absolutely no problem with that. It is the damn GOVERNMENT that wishes to infringe on right to bear arms. We need all then help we can get, even from “illegals”

Illegal immigrants have no right whatsoever.

Think about it. If we have an invasion, that’s illegal immigration. Does the court think that our military has no right to take weapons away from a hostile invasion force?

God these people are ignorant.

A bazillion decisions have been tested and overturned.

Look at something big...like Prohibition.

In my humble opinion, illegal alien foreigners and their children have NO rights of US citizenship what-so-ever, unless they LEAGALY naturalize which means, ‘here’s a pen, a form, and a forever stamp; now go back to your place of origin and start over. Bye now.’

If there is one thing I hope flushes out of this election, it is THIS, and building the darn wall with a ‘beautiful gate’.

A person is born with Natural God Given Rights, no matter where they are born, not matter where they live. The US Constitution was designed to protect these natural rights from the government that would infringe on them, this includes the Second Amendment.

An illegal alien may come from a country where these rights were infringed, its sad but that may be the case. That does not change the fact that an illegal alien is here illegally and needs to be deported.

The ruling said that illegal immigrants have 2A rights, but laws that forbid illegal immigrants from possessing firearms and ammunition are also constitutional.

Therefore, illegal immigrants do not have 2A rights.

Should be overturned by the Supremes.
Did the 7th just rule that armed criminals not even from here may remained armed?
That will make it easy to remove hangs alright.

So why don’t they have the right to vote then?

As for the background to the case, Wood explained that “Mariano Meza-Rodriguez, a citizen of Mexico, was arrested in August 2013… [and found to be] carrying a .22 caliber cartridge.” Because he did not have “documentation” to show that he was in the United States lawfully, he was charged as being in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(5), which forbids illegal immigrants from possessing firearms in the United States.

Wait ... he was arrested for carrying "a .22 caliber cartridge”?

I suppose if illegals are free-range catch-and release now under Obama, they need something, but this smells just a little of bogosity.

7th Circuit Court: Illegal Immigrants Have Second Amendment Rights Too

If only we could keep them in close proximity to Judges which believe this.

The liberal position: Illegal aliens have Second Amendment rights, but real Americans do not. I will never trust a liberal.

An invading army is just a bunch of illegal aliens exercising their 2A rights?

I have no problem at all with “granting” 2A rights to illegal immigrants. The right to self defense is a God given right. I have a problem with the state trying to make people defenseless, creating easy targets, creating victims out of thin air and entire neighborhoods ripe for violent criminality because the sociopaths will know they are unarmed.

Ooo, this gets funky.

“Yet the 7th Circuit upheld the District Court’s ruling—which upheld Meza-Rodriguez’s indictment—on the grounds that “the Second Amendment does not preclude certain restrictions on the right to bear arms, including the one imposed by § 922(g)(5).”

(g) It shall be unlawful for any person—
(5) who, being an alien—
(A) is illegally or unlawfully in the United States...

“...to ship or transport in interstate or foreign commerce, or possess in or affecting commerce, any firearm or ammunition; or to receive any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce...”

So in effect the court is saying that the *constitution* permits illegal aliens to have guns and ammunition, *but* FDRs perversion of the Interstate Commerce Clause means that he can have his 2nd Amendment rights taken away!

Oh, man, this is just so wrong in so many ways.

NOTHING is being done, once again, about voter fraud. The turd world invaders will be voting by 2016.

FEARLESS PREDICTION "Dreamers" will get voting rights, drivers licenses, tax breaks and DOJ mandated FAST TRACK FIREARMS PERMITS,and then you will have the "country within a country" they have conspired to create. (4 posted on March 31, 2015 at 4:46:18 AM EDT by Captainpaintball)

Well then, when the Chinese army comes to take over America, I guess because they have Second Amendment Rights now, we should not complain.
