A contingent of liberal Democrats in Congress is proposing a new federal gun control idea: mandatory liability insurance for gun owners.
When New York Rep. Carolyn Maloney introduced the legislation last month with eight other Democrats, she boasted that it is the first bill to require liability insurance of gun buyers nationwide.

One can only hope so. I had always pictured it looking like Red Dawn, but the more things actually come to fruition it’s starting to look like Terminator 4.

Probably both right. Red Dawn in the rural areas, and Terminator 4 in the urban areas.

How about requiring abortion providers carry a $100 million liability insurance policy?
To: NorseWood
And tax their businesses 95%.

They are armed.
They have the police, military, and the various alphabet soup agencies. Not to mention Holder’s drones.
The boys in uniform will by in large follow orders. At first anyway.

Democrats Propose $10,000 Fine For Gun Owners Who Dont Have Insurance I propose putting Democrats in leaky row boats and towing them several miles out to sea.
Let's put both proposals on the ballot as referendum issues and see how America votes.

“Others who have signed on as co-sponsors of the legislation include: Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison, D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, Massachusetts Rep. Michael Capuano, Virginia Rep. Jim Moran, Illinois Rep. Bobby Rush, Massachusetts Rep. Nikki Tsongas, Massachusetts Rep. Stephen Lynch and Oregon Rep. Earl Blumenauer.”
“The “usual suspects”.”
Actually, I found the identity of one of the co-sponsors to be very surprising. Congressman Stephen Lynch of South Boston is a labor Democrat who pretended to be pro-life and pro-gun when he ran to replace the late Joe Moakley (who was pro-life but I don’t believe was pro-gun). Lynch’s voting record on social issues has been quite spotty (and certainly more liberal than conservative), but he hasn’t been a moonbat as far as I know. Perhaps now that he’s running in the Democrat primary for the U.S. Senate he is “evolving” into a thinner Ted Kennedy.

You get fined or imprisoned for driving a car without insurance. You can own a car without insurance so long as you don’t take it out for a spin. They want insurance just for owning a gun, and fines for owning without a license. This has to be a due process issue.

How about a $10,000 fine for politicians who dont read the Constitution? Let's forego the fine and just hang these assholes. Our Founding Fathers would NOT have stood for this crap one minute!

Even worse. They want insurance against intentional use of a gun. No insurance company will insure against malicious torts. It’s not insurable. The most they will do is insure against negligence, which is infrequent when it comes to guns. But don’t have liability insurance on your collection that you never even load, and Bam! $10,000 fine. This sucks.

“Maloneys son and husband were shot by Collin Ferguson on an LIRR commuter train. Shes used that to leverage herself into political power, and has been determined to disarm us all, so nobody could protect themselves against other Collin Fergusons.”
Wrong “Maloney”. That was Carloyn McCarthy who’s son and husband were shot.

They don’t have the military. Maybe a few upper brass who are looking for some kind of appointment, but that’s it. Welfare babies and liberals kids don’t go military. It’s our sons and daughters, and telling them they need to start shooting at mom and dad ain’t gonna cut it...

They (the democrats/socialists) have complete control of the news media : that is why they are in control of the people and will remain. This is why the government has always grown never shrunken when Americans had favored smaller government

Soon we will be required to buy $10,000 insurance policies on New York real estate even if we own no property there. They had some damage last year, I hear.
Some New Yorkers can’t afford insurance. But if EVERYONE in America buys policies covering New York, surely the rates will drop so it is affordable for all. < /sarc >

Markey’s initial gigantic lead seems to be narrowing.
I guess Lynch’s plan is working. The piece of crap. I hope Markey wins, there’s a chance our candidate could upset him.
