Prohibition has been abolished, but federal excise tax on liquor remains constitutional. Likewise with any gun tax.

No, because 2A exists.

No, because 2A exists.

But has never been interpreted as ruling out any tax on firearms.

But it literally does in the amendment.... there is no "Except when Democrats get their fee fees rustled by it." clause on 2A. Anti-civil rights folks like yourself who desire to ignore that amendment as much as possible, notwithstanding of course.

Voting isn't even enumerated much less protected by an explicit "shall not be infringed."...... so I'll buy your idea that it's ok to tax peoples rights away or into the hands of the elite when you treat all the other rights the same way.

Otherwise you're just devoid of principle and a hypocrite.

....and he wonders why we laugh at him.

What "elite" are you talking about? It ain't pols or civil servants.

If you had to spend 3500 dollars, fill out paperwork and go interview with a federal agent who's heavily (R) biased to get a license to vote would you call that elitist??

Same thing for NFA/"class 3" weapons..... they shouldn't just be for people with spare income.

I'd call it undemocratic -- but that would not make the agent part of any elite.

I don't know what class 3 weapons are, but I'm sure anything more than a basic handgun or shotgun or hunting rifle is expensive, and, therefore, just for people with spare income. Unless we're going to have a kind of socialism of armaments.

No the agent is just a useful tool.

The policy keeping poor people from their rights, is elitist.

Written by elitist, just like you who fucking loathe the "little" people.

You don't know shit.

While in other nations I've bought select fire AK-47's with a full 'nanner mag for cheaper than most pellet/bb guns in the US. Literally 50 bucks for a new Russian, Yugo and Chinese surpluss AK's.

The only reason they are expensive here is because of the elitist policies that tax the shit out of them.
