California has spent a great deal of time trying to destroy the 2nd Amendment in their state, turning law-abiding citizens into criminals at the stroke of the Governor’s pen. But Los Angeles swore in new police officers recently- many of whom were DACA recipients (AKA Dreamers). There is controversy because some say that because they are not citizens, they can’t legally own or purchase a gun. Of course, California doesn’t care about their citizenship. That’s Ok, they don’t care about yours, either.
“California is trying to devalue citizenship. They’re trying to say, look, it doesn’t matter, basically. How can this person qualify in a background check? How can an illegal alien take an oath to uphold the law…when he broke the law? It’s ludicrous. This is an open-border state. They’re competing with New York City to basically say citizenship doesn’t matter, and it tells me one thing, that until this state removes itself from being a one-party deep blue state, we’re [going] to get these crazy…open policies regarding illegal immigration. They don’t want any distinction between citizenship and illegal aliens.” Leo Terrell, Fox News Contributor
Democrats want to restrict Americans gun rights, but are just fine will allowing non-citizen immigrants to possess a firearm against federal law if it fits their agenda.

#LAPD is now swearing in Illegal Aliens, (DACA) starting tomorrow.
They don’t have to follow the laws, but they will now be enforcing them on citizens.
Run from California… as fast as you can.

There is a nationwide shortage of police officers, particularly in blue states that defunded the police. Los Angeles didn’t think this through, of course. And it is controversial. DACA recipients were young children when they arrived illegally in the United States. Barack Obama signed Deferred Action into law in June of 2012.

The Los Angeles Board of Police Commissioners was set to meet this week to discuss the specific rule changes required to allow DACA officers to carry their firearms when off-duty. Under California law, full-time police officers are considered to be “peace officers” at all times, even when they are off duty, whereby such time is considered part of a “law enforcement purpose.”
In September 2022, the California state senate removed the requirement that California police officers must be U.S. citizens under Senate Bill 960. The only requirement is that officers be “legally authorized to work in the United States.” Perhaps there is hope for illegal members of Hamas and Hezbollah to become duly sworn police officers in California. The state (but not its police officers) deserves it.
In April, Colorado, vying to be “California lite,” passed similar legislation that allows DACA recipients to become police officers and possess firearms in the course of their duty.” Pat Droney at Law Enforcement Today
DACA recipients can rent a weapon at a gun range for practicing purposes, that’s a given. There do not appear to be any restrictions Federally on DACA recipients and guns, as long as all legal requirements state by state are adhered to. But California passed laws similar to other states that removed the requirement for citizenship. That part still grinds on many people.
