I've always been of that opinion. Back when I was in New York, you had to maintain a permit merely to own handguns, and pay to register with the police each new handgun you bought.

Same thing as a Poll Tax.
Where does the Constitution say that any rights covered by the Constitution can be taxed?

If you can be charged for it, it's not a right, just a privilege.

I hope this gets some serious traction before Biden & Co. try to put their proposed gun & ammo taxes into affect.

A huge weakness in our system is our own seeming inability to both prevent those who knowingly enact unconstitutional laws and regulations from doing so and to punish those who do.

This sort of thing is why the liberals so badly want to pack the supreme court. They want decisions like this overturned.

The check and balance we are supposed to have to keep this from happening is "Free and Honest Elections" That option was taken off the table, blatantly,.... Now they can do what they want.

Unfortunately, that will not leave many choices for Americans.

if even this liberal court sees a problem, then there is a problem The real issue here, is that this decision came down in 1943. Has this been addressed in the past 78 years? If not, why?

Never fear...................
If it gets to this court again, they'll find some way to circumvent or overturn that decision to somehow make "maintenance fees" for administration OK.

There is only two reasons for full registration of firearms. Taxation and/or confiscation and in Australia it became both.
