> San Jose CA gun [tax law](https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=Awr9ImnD2d1gCBAAc8NXNyoA;_ylu=Y29sbwNncTEEcG9zAzEEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Ny/RV=2/RE=1625180739/RO=10/RU=https%3a%2f%2fwww.foxbusiness.com%2flifestyle%2fsan-jose-tax-gun-owners-city-confiscate-firearms-noncompliance/RK=2/RS=h0RnQnACdoFa41Zsi4lP_pJU74Y-) is a positive first step to rational gun ownership. Requiring gun owners to cover the community cost of their activity does not violate the second amendment, To the contrary it enables gun ownership. Paying the tax is voluntary and enforcement is applied only on discovery of weapons with unpaid tax.

No need to repeat the same debate within the year.
