Seems obvious to me, but doesn't mean the court system will get it right. They did get it right this time, however....
DENVER (AP) — A federal appeals court says illegal immigrants don't have a right to own firearms under the U.S. Constitution.
Emmanuel Huitron-Guizar of Wyoming pleaded guilty to being an illegal immigrant in possession of firearms after his arrest last year. He was ordered held by immigration authorities at the Natrona County Detention Center in Wyoming.
An attorney for Huitron-Guizar appealed the case, saying illegal immigrants are not excluded from possessing firearms like felons and people who are mentally ill, and should have the same rights as U.S. citizens to buy a gun for hunting and protection.
The 10th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in Denver ruled Monday that illegal immigrants have only limited protection under the Constitution.
Huitron-Guizar's attorney, Ronald Pretty of Cheyenne, Wyo., says he plans to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

I seem to recall that there is a yellow form that all gun dealers have you complete before you can buy a firearm. One of the questions asks if you are in this country illegally and if you check yes there will be no gun sale so if you can't buy from a dealer then I guess you can't own one either.

We're not as geographically blessed as Australia. If someone wants to sneak into your country the way they do here, they'd better be really good swimmers. Here, all they have to do is dig a hole or sneak through a fence.
