In the FWIW Column here, the CSSA (the Colorado State Shooting Association) has just joined forces with the NRA to file suit against these latest State gun laws (gun bans).

As I loosely understand it, they are arguing that these new laws and "taxes" are being deployed as a form of a "poll tax" (similar to what was used in the Deep South to keep poor blacks from voting in the 1950s & 60s). Since these forms of "poll taxes" were found to be wildly unconstitutional many years ago now, the argument is that this particular approach (being employed by the presently Democratic-majority government here in Colorado) is also unconstitutional.

I guess we'll see, right?
