The Democratic Party is notorious for wanting to disarm innocent Americans, but there’s one class of people they want to give guns, at your expense: illegal aliens.
Democratic officials in a deep-blue city, inside a blue state, plan to spend taxpayer funds so that illegal aliens can keep guns in their house 24/7.
The most amazing part is, the proposal is coming from the police.
California Governor and Democratic presidential candidate-in-waiting Gavin Newsom opened the ranks of the state’s police departments to illegal aliens in September 2022, when he signed Senate Bill 960 into law.
Since then, the people who keep Americans safe in California don’t have to be Americans at all.
“They want us replaced,” said conservative writer Daniel Horowitz, senior editor at Glenn Beck’s The Blaze.

Los Angeles employs officers who are part of Barack Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), and the approximately 600,000 “Dreamers” are legally barred from owning guns.
The LAPD gives them guns during the day, but now they want to go a step further: L.A. officials want illegal aliens to take their police revolvers home at night—in violation of federal law—claiming they need guns at home for the “performance of their official duties or other law enforcement purpose.”
Under fedearl law illegal aliens, including the ones enrolled in the DACA program, aren’t allowed to have guns at all.
LAPD Chief Michel Moore told NBC News Los Angeles he’s asked numerous, taxpayer-funded legal experts at the national, state, and city level “to articulate the basis of which a DACA individual, now a police officer, can lawfully carry and possess a firearm and ammunition.”
The group Blacks Against Biden called L.A.’s plan “fk’ed beyond all imagination. Only in the state of California can an illegal immigrant carry (a) fire arm. In that case all American felons should be able to be armed.
Numerous people asked, How can lawbreakers enforce the law?
“‘Illegals arresting illegals,’ this is outrageous,” said another writer.

Democrats threw their lot in with arming illegals even though a federal judge ruled the entire DACA program is illegal.
Judge Andrew W. Hanen, a George W. Bush appointee, ruled in September that the DACA program is “the epitome of ‘the Executive seizing the power of the Legislature.’”
Regardless, Democrats doubled down on an illegal program for illegals that lets them illegally arm illegals. Got it?
What happens if these illegal aliens have ties to international drug cartels? What if they refuse to arrest their fellow illegal immigrants who commit crimes against Americans? What if they use their handguns to kills U.S. citizens?
Democrats aren’t concerned—in fact, Democrat-controlled Colorado passed a similar measure to arm illegal alien police officers in April.
But Democrats want to disarm you: Joe Biden promised in May he would “immediately” sign a number of gun control measures, if they ever make it to his desk.
Why would Democrats want to arm illegal aliens while disarming U.S. citizens?
Either way, compare the way California wants to treat illegal immigrants to what Texas cities propose to do with them.
The mayor of Eagle Pass, Texas—Rolando Salinas—has seen thousands of illegal “migrants” enter his city in a single day, and he’s got a message: He wants them all deported.
Instead, everyone in Central and South America knows the Biden administration is “processing them quick, that’s why they keep coming,” Salinas said. “That’s why you have thousands of people coming in through my city, and it’s impacting our citizens every single day.”
But Biden has practically ended all deportations, even of criminal aliens.
“Until we start deporting people in large amounts, this will continue to keep going,” Salinas warned. “Until we start deporting these people, they’re going to keep coming and they’re going to keep affecting the economy, the safety of my community.”
This is tough talk—tougher than most Republicans would be comfortable with—and Salinas is a Democrat.
“There needs to be a consequence to so many people crossing illegally. If somebody breaks a law, there needs to be a consequence,” said Salinas. “And right now, there are no consequences.”
It’s worse than that: Not only are there no consequences for breaking U.S. immigration law, there are rewards.
That perversion of justice won’t change until Democrats face the consequences at the ballot box this November.
