Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Second Amendment does not give illegal aliens right to have guns

https://libertyunyielding.com/2022/...o-have-guns-federal-appeals-court-rules/

A federal appeals court has upheld a federal law banning illegal aliens from possessing guns, ruling that the Second Amendment does not give illegal aliens the right to keep and bear arms. Yesterday, the Atlanta-based Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals issued a 3-to-0 ruling to that effect in U.S. v. Jimenez-Shilon. The decision discussed the history and historical context of the Second Amendment, and concluded,

[Under eighteenth-century law,] aliens could not surreptitiously enter a foreign nation in violation of the immigration prerogatives of the sovereign and expect to receive all the rights and protections of the citizenry. Nor can they do so today.

Biden and his administration need to hang for importing millions of them. We are loosing our culture and it is because of politicians from both parties ignoring our constitution and our religion.

America's Founders were interested in protecting the Rights of Americans. They were not at all concerned about everyone else.

The Founders had a solution tucked away. It used flint. -Hint-

Agreed Digital

Yep. And Lead. 👍🏻

Yep. Most of them need to Swing.

Yes... but flint requires resolve...

And resolve is in damn short supply across this nation.

Very interesting and dated May 24, 2022 which is today. Several times I have posed this question: Does the Bill of Rights in the constitution apply to only citizens, to those in the country legally or to anyone present in the country? This ruling would indicate the Bill of Rights apply only to citizens and those in the country legally. If one right applies to those in the country legally, don't all the rights apply equally? Free speech, right to a jury trial, secure in your home, etc. What is your opinion and what is the potential affect of this ruling? What am I missing here?

Little victories give me hope…

I can see our Supreme Court coming up with justification that the illegals have MORE rights to firearms than U.S. citizens do.

It would appear as if they’re immune from the law. 😉

Yeah, it makes you wonder why “due process” applies to someone here illegaly. That’s the whole reason (supposedly) why so many illegals get to stay, awaiting their “due process” (court hearing).

Much like a member of your family or someone INVITED (legal immigrant), is treated differently than someone who INVADES (breaks in). Why should someone here ILLEGALLY get the benefits of citizens/legals??

You mean the same one that’s about to overrule Roe?

Was the shooter an illegal alien?

I cannot find that being reported anywhere.

Born in North Dakota.

No, but a CA Hunter Education card and Hunting License does.... and it also apparently "proves" residency.... just need a Matricula Consular ID from Mexico and you're good to go...

You can carry a gun in your new country of residence and you get the "resident" rates for tags and licenses.

You sir are right and it’s been going on for a long time. Just think of the phrase of a death by a thousand cuts.

I hope the loser is stupid enough to appeal it to the Supreme Court while Thomas is still there and we have the super majority.... Roberts doesn't swing as big of a stick as he used to after Barrett gave us 5 votes WITHOUT him. I am impatiently waiting for the opinion on the NYSRPA v. Bruen which we should see in the next few weeks..... hoping Roberts in neutered and Thomas writes the majority opinion. 🤞🏻
