@Maureen seems to want a racists opinion on this...
1) The problem isn't with gun control. It is illegal for a retail gun shop to sell a gun to an illegal alien, which would have been realized during the background check and resulted in a denied application. He didn't go through the proper channels getting into the country, what makes you think he would go through the proper channels to obtain a gun? This isn't a case of gun control, this is a case of a shit head.
2) Obama is doing things VERY differently than Reagan. Reagan said ok we're going to end this immigration issue by granting the illegals already here a free pass, but we're closing the borders. Obama is giving them a free pass, but keeping the borders open and actually making it very difficult for Border Patrol to do their job. Arizona, for example has told the feds they want to deal with immigration themselves. They even want to put their own people on border patrol and deport every single illegal crossing the border. They would even pay for all of it in their own state, and the feds said no.
3) I have no issues with people coming into the US legally. get your papers and shit together and come over. Also, if you come here illegally and shit out a kid, that kid should NOT be a US citizen. Hell, it shouldn't happen with people who are here legally on a visa either, which the Chinese are known to do.
And yes Maureen, Mexico is a shithole. There are beautiful places there, don't get me wrong, but the corruption in government and the shit that spills over into the southern US states because of it is disgusting. Get your drug problem in order and we'll talk. Wealthy people needing bodyguards in Mexico City to prevent their kids from being kidnapped for ransom? You know where else you have to do that? South Africa. You know where you don't? The United States. Did you know Mexico is such a shit hole that they don't even care if the people coming in from the US side of the border have a passport? They don't even check. you can just walk on through. They don't care who comes in to their country.
