An Obama-appointed federal judge has ruled that illegal aliens can buy, own, and carry guns

While the Democrats have been doing whatever they can to try to deprive law-abiding citizens of the ability to defend themselves from non-law abiding people, an Illinois Obama-appointed federal judge Sharon Johnson Coleman has ruled that illegal aliens are able to buy, own and carry guns despite the fact that they are not citizens, and despite the fact that it is currently a federal crime for illegals to own guns. The ruling was in response to a defendant Hariberto Carbajal-Flores who was arrested in possession of a handgun in Chicago.

Coleman ridiculously reasoned that since Flores has no record of violent crime, he (and by extension others) should have Second Amendment rights. She stated in her ruling:
The Court finds that Carbajal-Flores’ criminal record, containing no improper use of a weapon, as well as the non-violent circumstances of his arrest do not support a finding that he poses a risk to public safety such that he cannot be trusted to use a weapon responsibly and should be deprived of his Second Amendment right to bear arms in self-defense. Thus, this Court finds that, as applied to Carbajal-Flores, Section 922(g)(5) is unconstitutional.
An article in The Federalist explains that throughout the history of the United States it has never allowed gun rights to non-citizens. The article also mentions that the Los Angeles Police Department has recently begun hiring people who entered the U.S. illegally but received DACA status, however DACA status claims are often unverifiable.
