Illegals Getting More Gun Rights than Americans
Front Page Magazine ^ | July 2, 2024 | Luis Valdes

Police departments across the country are getting desperate to hire due to chronic understaffing and elevated burnout. Earlier this month, the Seattle Police Department became the latest major law enforcement agency to open recruiting to illegal aliens, and if hired, these new cops will end up having more gun rights than everyday Americans.

Under this new hiring policy, illegal aliens protected from deportation under the Obama-era DACA program will be eligible to apply. Of course, should these aspiring officers pass the training academy, they will be sworn to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and empowered with the full authority of the law, including the authority to arrest, execute warrants, and carry service weapons.

Many readers may not be aware that a series of federal laws exist that exempt active and retired police officers from state and local gun control laws when carrying off-duty and in restricted areas. This can include the right to carry in many gun-free zones and exempt them from bans on certain firearms and certain magazines. On top of that, House Republicans just passed a bill to further expand these rights to carry for current and retired cops on certain public lands and in many federal buildings.

While it sounds like a great idea at first glance, there’s a serious constitutional question that’s being ignored: Why should a certain class of people be given special rights that all Americans can’t enjoy—especially when that class of individuals may now include illegal aliens?

While cops can carry nationwide thanks to these federal protections, this right should be afforded to all Americans under the Second Amendment. Every hardworking, law-abiding citizen deserves to be able to exercise their rights and be able to defend themselves without fear of prosecution for crossing an...

Allowing criminal illegal aliens to police Americans is more proof that we are being colonized and subjugated by foreigners. We are like China during the opium wars where our government actively works against its own people.

The day an azho illegal alien tries to police officer my ass is the day it is going to get extremely ugly in America. Keep your illegal aliens to yourselves.

It is safe to assume that any politicians that actively campaigns against the wall and strong immigration policy is making bank with Mexico.

Section 1324 title 8 makes it a federal felony to encourage illegals to live here. It’s a crime for ANYONE to hire an illegal and being DACA doesn’t change that. DACA is not a law - it was done by EO and they are still illegal aliens.

Illegal Alien LEO = Enemy Combatant.

F*CK the Geneva Convention regarding protections for Enemy Combatants.

One would think LEOs would put a stop to this BS. The question that needs asked is, WHY AREN’T THEY STOPPING THIS?

Are they COWARDS or Complicit?

Not just Dems. Reps stirring up trouble too. Republican senator, from TX no less, John Cornyn was instrumental in getting the “bipartisan” anti freedom, anti gun Safer Communities act passed.
