On their own those items are not illegal, but Virginia Code does not allow people with Student Visas to own assault firearms, or, “any semi-automatic center-fire rifle or pistol that expels single or multiple projectiles by action of an explosion of a combustible material and is equipped at the time of the offense with a magazine which will hold more than 20 rounds of ammunition or designed by the manufacturer to accommodate a silencer or equipped with a folding stock,” according to the Code definition.
I don't think we should allow any non-citizen to have firearms on US soil.
Why shouldn't they be allowed to defend themselves here?I don't think we should allow any non-citizen to have firearms on US soil.
However, arresting this kid was stupid. Class 6 felony for possession of a commonly available rifle that's legal for him to purchase.....BUT.....it's illegal once paired with a magazine that's legal for any citizen and readily available at any gun store in his area.....Stupidity.
Asian guy, guns, Virginia Tech... probably going to be an arrest.

You expect to be able to go to another country and carry your handgun? Maybe I'd be OK with non-citizens from specific countries if those countries also agreed to honor our right to carry on their land.
But no, as of right now, I don't think non-citizens should be able to be armed on US soil. They choose to come here, they should accept the risk of not being armed here.
Most can't legally arm themselves in their home country. You think a Chinese citizen can legally walk through downtown Hong Kong with a pistol??? Why should they be able to here if they can't even do that in their home country. We should stop allowing non-citizens to arm themselves on our soil.
Only exemption should be for hunting.

I thought the official INGO position was that self-defense...including with firearms, is a human right.
