I get you don’t like guns but what if we instituted a poll tax? If you aren’t wealthy enough to vote you must not care about your representation enough. Taxing enumerated rights is dangerous. If you don’t like the right, do the hard work of changing the constitution.
It’s a false equivalence because of the 24th Amendment.
Amendment Twenty-four to the Constitution was ratified on January 23, 1964. It abolished and forbids the federal and state governments from imposing taxes on voters during federal elections.
Prior to that, poll taxes were legal. Just as taxes on guns and ammo are legal. Every state with a sales tax afaik applies it to guns.

False equivalence. A vote is not a gun.
Both are constitutional rights. Newsom is pandering with a law he knows will get struck down.
