More wasted taxpayer money as courts strike down this obviously unconstitutional law. As a Californian, I’m sick and tired of my taxes being frittered away in the defense of indefensible laws.
You can’t tax an enumerated right. How can this possibly be anything other than an illegal infringement?
I get you don’t like guns but what if we instituted a poll tax? If you aren’t wealthy enough to vote you must not care about your representation enough. Taxing enumerated rights is dangerous. If you don’t like the right, do the hard work of changing the constitution.
It’s a false equivalence because of the 24th Amendment.
Amendment Twenty-four to the Constitution was ratified on January 23, 1964. It abolished and forbids the federal and state governments from imposing taxes on voters during federal elections.
Prior to that, poll taxes were legal. Just as taxes on guns and ammo are legal. Every state with a sales tax afaik applies it to guns.
Seems things are hand-over-fist better there as it is than things are in America when it comes to dipshits with firearms, wouldn’t you agree? I mean, I don’t see anyone there complaining about their rights to murder school children like you knuckleheaded Cletuses do here.
So, in essence, I’d fucking love to move there. It’s safer. And they respect life.
That’s because they’re complaining about all their other rights being taken away en masse.
Wanna know what makes things like protests work in the U.S.? That’s right, the underlying threat of violence (with guns).
I can’t believe it, there are posts daily about authoritarianism on the rise globally (that means in the U.S. too) and there are still idiots that think guns are the problem. It’s genuinely mindblowing. You’re just another authoritarian that paints itself in leftist colors.
I live in Seattle WA. So according to your rules- I can say however much or little I wish. And for the record- the same would go regardless of wether or not I live in the states or abroad. It’s only fuckwits like you that think there’s some unwritten rule that dictates who can and can’t speak up based on the irrelevant notion that the geographical location of one’s birth is what permits the right to opine.
But I’m guessing this doesn’t stop your dumb ass from sharing what you think of other countries, does it?
I’m also guessing that the reason you thought I was a foreigner is because your limited logical processes couldn’t possibly fathom a born-and-and-raised American speaking negatively about their country could you? Yeah. That’s called “free speech.” Brave men and women throughout our history have died for this right, remember?
And for the record… blowhard douchebags like yourself are you are exactly why people hate Americans. If it’s not your insufferable smug arrogance, it’s your willful ignorance when discussing things you know nothing about, and the false notion that you have some sort of authority in delegating what people can and cannot do with their own bodies and lives.
And sadly, your obnoxious bullshit happens to be so loud that it drowns out any reasonable discussion. So foreigners are left to assume it’s just people like you that live here.
So how about you stop fucking it up for the rest of us, sit down, shut up and get yourself a bit of common sense and self-awareness before you chose to embarrass yourself on the internet.
Yeah your entire post can be summed up as ad hominem, you addressed none of my previous points beyond assuming you don’t live in the U.S.
Which, by the way, I did because you sound like you have an AI writing for you. Which would also explain the hyperfixation on a singular point made.
You “yawn” at other countries, countries like the U.K., continuously losing rights while failing to regonizs that strikes and protests are working across the country and are fundamentally underpinned by violence.
Jesus, get the fuck off your soapbox. Ratios don’t make you right.
So you think poll taxes and steps to stop people from their constitutional right to vote is bad too? Or is it only unconstitutional if you can’t murder people afterwards?
Yes, I believe any law that is meant to prevent people from exercising their right to vote is bad. And why the obsession with murder? The vast majority of gun owners are peaceful, wonderful people. Your bigotry is exhausting.

Awww…. You poor thing. Texas loves passing laws that allow people to murder one another. Maybe go there?

False equivalence. A vote is not a gun.

Maybe move back to England where your lilly ass would be milking the kings cows if citizens were never allowed to bear arms.

Yawn…
Weird how little you have to say.
Remember, you don’t live here. Don’t weigh in on things that don’t concern you. Ok buddy?
Oh and you are absolutely an authoritarian, judging from your comments. You are the reason I will not stop advocating for gun rights.
Stay mad you wannabe dictator.
Want me to say more? Okay!

Was that enough, Cletus? Should I say more?
