"..if this is a new tactic, we are in trouble.."

This is inevitable. This is only a small sample of what's going to come.

Aliens are allowed to purchase and own firearms. It's right there on that yellow firearms application you fill out when you buy a gun.

I couldn't believe it. (I hadn't bought a gun for awhile.) I said to the dealer (long before 9/11), "you mean to tell me a noncitizen can buy a firearm?" He said, "Sure, why not?" (He is of foreign origin.)

I said, "Because we have millions of foreign nationals living in our borders, many of whom consider America to be their sworn enemy. And not only do we allow them in the country, we're going to arm them, as well? That's why not."

This is the scenario I've been dreading.

You bet. I'll never forget one time looking over some hand guns with a local gun dealer when I noticed an hispanic couple next to me also looking at guns to buy. Both seemed to be illegals and this guy's wife was translating what the sales guy was saying about the guns he was thinking about buying. I remember thinking at the time "how can an illegal alien buy a gun in this country"? This was about 8 years ago.
