In White County Illinois, a judge ruled that the Illinois FOID card is unconstitutional. This is not to carry a weapon around, but just to have one in your home. The state is saying that the FLOID card is not saying that you can't own a gun, just that you have to pay for the right to own one. The defendant says that if she doesn't pay the fee, then she is being denied the right to have a gun in her home. Any opinions? article

The judge is correct. Nowhere in the second amendment does it say you have to pay for the right to own a gun. However in our tax happy democratic dictatorship, they will simply call it a registration fee to circumvent the constitution.they did not fail, because they did what their country asked of them....

Reminds me of that old Beatles song, back in the USSR. The Democrat Party sees the constitution as just a mild roadblock and they have done a pretty nice job treating it as such.All these punks would have a quick change of attitude if the cops just started cracking some skulls.
