I suspect the argument in court will be that the Representatives who wrote the Amendment didn't intend for it to cover illegals. I've seen this claimed recently.

I am certain that the authors of the 2nd amendment didn't intend it to apply to semi-automatic weapons. I suspect they meant it to apply to well regulated militias formed to help the Army defend our democracy against the British.
ThatтАЩs an easy claim! Of course they didnтАЩt. Automatic weapons didnтАЩt exist then. However, the Court found in its Heller decision that the right for individuals to arm themselves was not absolute. Like, individuals couldnтАЩt own nuclear weapons to protect themselves from a tyrannical government.
