http://www.nolanchart.com/article6011.htmlHave you applied for a Concealed Carry Permit? Were you forced to pay for the permit? If so, your Constitutional Rights are being violated.
"We the People" should not have to pay on an individual basis for our Constitutional Rights. They are guaranteed by our Constitution. So when states pass ordinances that require us to pay fees to exercise those rights, I believe they are violating our Constitutional Rights.
If the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment protects us from the payment of fees for an electoral standard, why would it also not apply to the Second Amendment and our right to keep and bear arms? Should we not apply the same standard to the Second Amendment?
Requiring us to pay for a weapons permit should fall into this category. We may still be required to register for a permit, as we are required to register to vote, but no fees should be collected.
