Police officials in Indiana say a proposal to eliminate the state’s handgun carry license requirement for civilians could result in a loss of revenue. The Joint Committee on Judiciary and Public Policy heard presentations on the proposal Thursday, The Tribune-Star reported . It seeks to repeal the law requiring a person to obtain a license in order to carry a handgun in the state.

OK... so the State of Indiana makes a PROFIT on the issuance of handgun licenses? The fees cover more than the costs? So they are, essentially, taxing a Constitutional Right? And I thought SCOTUS ruled that poll taxes and the like were UNCONSTITUTIONAL. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
