I suppose it comes down to how you view it.
Having to pay for a voter ID is like having to buy the right to vote.
You don't buy the right to own a gun. You already have that right for free. You just buy the gun.

No, it's not. what is being proposed is needing an ID to vote. not needing a specific ID that can only be used to vote.
Well make it so. Give it away for free to anyone with a social security number and allow it to be used as an ID for purchasing guns.
That way only citizens can vote or buy guns.
Sorted.
