So, now it appears that the fees received for doing all these background checks did not actually ONLY cover the costs of those background checks, but were actually an integral part of the OSBI's revenue stream for other functions as well?
.
If not, then they wouldn't need replacement revenue, would they. This is definitive PROOF that the fees were a tax on firearm ownership and the exercise of a Constitutional Right.
.
Class action suit based on "poll tax" rulings from SCOTUS, anybody? |

| Is this an admission that license to carry is about tax revenue and not about safety? |

TO REMEMBER |
| You are bound to meet misfortune if you are unarmed because, among other reasons, people despise you....There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed. In the latter case, there will be suspicion on the one hand and contempt on the other, making cooperation impossible. — Niccolo Machiavelli in "The Prince." |
