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? |

| QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
| Today the taxing power, rather than chattel slavery, is the instrument by which the parasitical element of the population subsists. And that element, which includes politicians, panics at the slightest reduction in the state's power to plunder. Once you start liberating taxpayers, even a little tiny bit, nobody knows where it may end. —Joseph Sobran |
