While the right to vote is littered throughout the Constitution, the
right to bear arms is expressly defined in the Second Amendment. It’s my
assertion that if you oppose voter ID laws due to financial concerns,
then you must also oppose federal registration and regulation in the gun
industry.
Increased regulation and registration on a federal level would mean
creating a vast bureaucracy to track and verify firearms. This
registration is a cost that would be funded by gun owners. In essence,
citizens would be charged by the government for exercising their
expressed and guaranteed Constitutional rights. This is a poll tax for
the Second Amendment!
Disqualifying someone from exercising their right to bear arms “by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax” is wrong.
