The question becomes: Does it impact a fundamental right? At some point it does. We decided you cannot put a poll tax on people to say you have to pay money for your right to vote. People do not have to pay for the right to speak out about advocate beliefs because you have a right to free speech. I do think these restrictions, as they increase, can reach a point of denial of people's individual right to keep and bear arms. We want to be sure that a judge not only recognizes it is a constitutional individual right but that the judge recognizes that some of these restrictions we accept and are legitimate go too far.
