First thing, requiring a permit to exercise a Constitutional right is an infringement on that right. Would you be OK with requiring a permit to exercise your 1st Amendment right, or how about the 4th, 6th, 13th, 19th or 24th? How about requiring a government issued permit to vote? I'm not talking about a photo ID, but requiring that you obtain the government's permission before you are permitted to vote, as well as a back ground check to make sure you are mentally competent. I mean it's just a common sense approach to make sure only qualified, mentally competent Citizens vote, right? Why would any rational person be against that? No one would be trying to take away your right to vote, we would just be putting some common sense restrictions on that right.
