Mind you, these are the same Democrats who think law enforcement asking about a person’s citizenship status, or an employer asking a job candidate if he/she has a criminal history, are unacceptable lines of inquiry. The state just wants to know if you have guns or gun safes and how many, and how you store said firearms—for your safety of course!
To Democrats, the idea of privacy only applies in certain scenarios:
if you want to have a private discussion with your doctor about whether to murder the child in your womb or not;
if you’re a parent who wants to “transition” your child with cross-sex hormones and surgery without the scrutiny of naysayers or any visits from Child Protective Services;
or, if you’re a minor struggling with mental health issues like “gender” confusion—then you should have total privacy over your “health” and away from the prying eyes of a parent who may want to get you psychiatric and emotional help.
The answer to this question is ALWAYS “no.”
California OF COURSE, the state of creeping communism.
NY tried that for awhile- going to a health clinic the person had to fill out a form with a question about whether they had guns in the home or not- supposedly it was a ‘mental health’ assessment requirement- it didn’t last long however and was deemed unconstitutional-
It’s Commifornia so the law will probably pass. So starting next January insurance companies will be required to ask and submit firearm data.
Now the law will probably be challenged in court by several parties and eventually overturned. But the legal process will take months if not years. That means CA will be able to collect firearm data on anybody whose policy comes up for renewal in the interim.
So even if the law is overturned, thousands of folks will have their ownership data become the property of the state ie CA and the FedGov. Even if the order to destroy the collected data is declared, does anyone really think it will be?
Just leave all non-critical fields blank, including the zip code and state.
If applying in person, just wave your hand in a flinging motion.
“In addition to existing regulations, an application for homeowners’ or renters’ insurance shall include questions regarding all of the following:
(1) Whether there are firearms...
(2) Whether the firearm, if any, is...
(3) The number of firearms kept in a vehicle located on the property...”
“is”[present tense], “are”[present tense], “on”
Sacramento: another City of Evil.
Isn’t there a law against government using a private enterprise to collect data that the government is not allowed to collect themself?
I decided years ago if I am ever asked about firearms by either my insurance or doctors I am simply going to not only lie about it but proactively lie about supporting gun control groups as a form of diversion and worry about the moral implications of that later.
