The trial court had ruled that 922 (g)(5)(A) violated the Second Amendment. The 7th Circuit remanded back for rehearing consistent with their understanding.
Essentially, illegal aliens have not shown loyalty to the nation in which they are living. This is not quite the reasoning that I would have used but the same result.
UPDATE: My reasoning would be that permanent residents have agreed to abide by our laws; they can be deported and stripped of residency for breaking more serious laws. Illegal aliens are citizens of other countries and have agreed to break our laws.
