I'm a gun guy, but I don't know how this will work.
Apparently the houses of Congress have some sort of amnesty deal for illegal aliens, and Pres. Bush looks to sign anything on immigration.
Blah, blah, with trigger provisions of the bill will never be enforced, Crud, we are not enforcing the current laws now. What makes us peep's think they will enforce the new & improved, better laws??
Anyway there is a Z-Visa blah, blah, which makes one a legal alien among other stuff I have not had a chance to review.
So now that these folks are some sort of legal immigrants will they be able to purchase guns?
The VA Tech shooter was a legal immigrant, hence could purchase guns.
Could the Ft. Dix Six purchase guns with this new deal(not the full auto's and RPG's -Rocket Propelled Grenades obviously(not going into the NFA of 1934 on this post))
The Ft. Dix Six were trying to purchase guns illegally, so gun control is mute here anyway.
How will they do the background checks? How will we know who this person even is given the massive document fraud. Showing up with a Mexican birth certificate is really not much proof of ID is it?
Have we just armed a bunch of unknowns?
Guessing the brilliance of Congress, my bet is rather than enforce immigration laws, more gun control is on the way because of this deal.
I'm in favor of repealing most gun laws but I don't know what this new immigration fiasco means to us law abiding gun owners?
Anyone??
UPDATE: the Bill failed
