Fixed it for you. smile A convicted felon has no right to bear arms, Neither should anyone that entered this country Illegally. Their rights reside in their home country. Which they should be sent back to as soon as they are discovered here. miles

Only because a convicted felon is prevented from via law which which may/may not be constitutional. A convicted felon, having served their time should be allowed a firearm under the Constitution. I see nothing in the Constitution that restricts the 2A based upon one's legal record. US law says they can't.

One might argue that an illegal immigrant hasn't received any due process at all, compared to the felon and thus - again, has a 2A right absent some other proof/due process he doesn't.

US law also says an illegal can't have a gun (ATF form 4473 12c) - the judge says "that's in infringement and illegal. This person can have a gun" - think that out just a little bit. Laws against firearm ownership is an infringement under her ruling and thus - unconstitutional. It opens the floodgates to everything by being so literally applied. 2A - Shall not be infringed. ZERO conditions upon that.

Enforce the border - this isn't an issue. You haven't enforced the border, creating this issue and her ruling has opened the door to something her side of the aisle probably doesn't want.
