If the government can force a man to buy an insurance product, why not a gun as well? Right dems?

What does the State Constitution say? Can they force people to buy anything?

If, as people of a conservative mind maintain, it is unconstitutional to force people to buy health insurance, wouldn’t it likewise be unconstitutional to compel them to buy a firearm?

Y’all know doggoned well that if such a measure passed it would be mere nanoseconds before another politician came along and demanded that, in the interests of fairness, those who have more than one gun start giving them away to those that don’t have any.

I like the effect of this *a lot*. However, I'd go about funding it differently.
When you apply for a South Dakota drivers license, the fee will go up by about $200-$400. When your license is issued, you get a "free" gun as well.
Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

Having grown up in SD - this bill may lead to the sale of 5, maybe 6 guns. Most everyone in the state has at least a varmit rifle, a shotgun and the trusty old .22.
My fear is that ANY idiot who decides that they can dictate what a citizen can do - needs to be removed from office. We are Citizens, not Subjects.
This is an over-stepping of their authority, they have no Constitutionally authority of forcing us to purchase anythign - insurance, cars, firearms or T-shirts.

Assuming responsibility for a firearm is like singing. If you can’t do it capably and well, no one should encourage you to do it. It won’t end well

If it is truly a right, then it can’t be imposed by statute. It would be unconstitutional in same way commanding you to ‘speak your mind’ is unconstitutional. State constitution shouldn’t matter.

Nice thought, but largely redundant. Most SD citizens already have a gun.
How about a Federal law requiring all Americans to own a gun.
After all, Jefferson wrote, regarding ownership of guns by the American citizen, that it was “their right and duty to be at all times armed”.
Good enough for Jefferson is good enough for me.
