It would appear that Utah Shotgunner and the closet Democrats here who identify as "Independent Moderates" out of fear or embarrassment want it both ways.
The conclusions drawn from the opinion piece from the Liberal Left leaning Hill article were predictable, but hardly the final word. As Ted mentioned, entering the U.S. illegally is a felony. And it is only Liberal Left Democrats that want felons to enjoy the same Constitutionally protected rights such as voting and gun ownership as are guaranteed to U.S. Citizens.
No doubt this will end up being decided by the U.S. Supreme Court. And there is no doubt that Democrats who preach about Trump's disrespect for Kangaroo Courts will cry if they lose, and will further push to pack the Court with Liberals. This is yet another reason to do all we can to prevent a Socialist/Communist like Kamala Harris from winning in November.
Democrats fought and succeeded in passing the Gun Control Act of 1968 which prohibits felons and certain others suspected of serious crimes from buying, transferring, or possessing a firearm. For example, someone who had a PFA or Protection From Abuse order, because their wife or girlfriend accused them of domestic violence, would not pass a NICS Background Check, and they cannot purchase or possess firearms... even though they may not have a conviction for the alleged crime.
Anti-Gun Democrats are using so-called Red Flag Laws to confiscate firearms from legal gun owners... without Due Process... and the dummies here who support Illegals owning firearms keep voting Democrat.
Citizens who sell guns in private sales are prohibited by law from selling guns to any person they reasonably suspect may be a prohibited buyer, either because of possible criminal or minor (age) status. Citizens who are not FFL's may not sell a firearm to a legal buyer if they suspect it is a Straw Purchase intended to supply a gun to a prohibited person. Yet now Liberals are making the fallacious argument that Illegal Alien felons who have not been caught, tried, or convicted should have the same Rights as those legal citizens who abide by the 1968 GCA law enacted by Democrats???
We constantly hear Democrats justifying Lawfare against Trump and his associates by repeating the tired refrain, "No person is above the Law", yet we see them obstructing justice everyday in plain sight by preventing Customs and Border Patrol from enforcing U.S. Immigration Law by allowing tens of millions of Illegals to enter, and also to make Illegal Asylum claims. The Biden Administration files lawsuits against Governors who attempt to enforce the laws they flout. They have even bypassed Border Security by Illegally flying hundreds of thousands of Illegals into the U.S. at taxpayer expense. Taxpayer money that was supposed to rebuild our infrastructure is being used to import Illegals and provide them with free housing, Welfare, food, education, health care, cell phones, etc., while we have Veterans and U.S. Citizens living on the street. We also see Democrats obstructing every attempt to try and convict the Biden Crime Family for things like money laundering, tax evasion, and Joe Biden stealing Classified Documents while he was a Senator and Vice President, and had no legal right to remove them for his own financial gain. Remember that when you hear Kamala or Nancy Pelosi say "No person is above the law".
But don't worry about the poor downtrodden Illegals who want guns. They are already procuring them in home invasions and burglaries of Gun Shops... and yours may be next. Tens of millions of military age males aren't invading our country because they just want to pick crops.
It's sad to see people here are concerned that Illegals should have the same right as legal citizens to own firearms, when many of them do not care one bit when anti-gun Democrats like Harris, Biden, etc., state their intention to ban the sale, use, and manufacture of semi-autos by law abiding U.S. Citizens.
As if we needed more proof that Liberalism is a Mental Illness.
