Chancellor said:
Is it really the individual's operation of a motor vehicle itself that is a privilege or is it the individual's operation of that vehicle on roads within a particular state that is a privilege?

As you know, on the roads provided for through taxation are the reasoning of the privilidge, and the fee for licensing part of the expense for maintaining those roads.

Besides, I wasn't referring to requiring a license to own a gun but, instead, the completion of a gun safety course prior to such ownership.

I have no problem with people being required to take a safety course, as long as their ownership does not DEPEND on the outcome of that course, as in, the form of a test.
You know someone will refuse to take the course, and the government will try to use that as a reason to prevent ownership.
They don't have that rights to prevent ownership.
