How about if we have all Criminals, or those MOST PRONE TO BREAK THE LAW (aka, the Usual Suspects), purchase “Liability Insurance”, so they can compensate THEIR victims????

and the school loan business and the mortgage business and the abortion business etc etc etc
Let’s see, when I get auto insurance, the insurance company requires identifying information regarding my autos.
When I get a rider on my homeowner’s policy for particular items, they want identifying information on those items.
When I want to get firearms insurance....
You do all understand that this is a backdoor into registration of firearms, don’t you? As well as, of course, a way in which to make it more expensive to own guns.
Oh, and those that are denied insurance - no guns. How convenient.
Phuck this idea.
By the way, general liability insurance (i.e. an umbrella policy) will cover such liabilities, provided you aren’t engaged in a criminal act when the injury in question occurs.
So, the idea here is to transfer the liability from the misuser of the firearm to the person who owns it? I guess that will apply to hammers, baseball bats, knives etc sometime in the future too?
These guys never give up.
Check this out, as well as #24.
For the left, it is always about money.
You’re right. I think we can expect “mandatory gun insurance.”
As someone in the insurance business you already have liability insurance if you have a homeowner policy. This liability follows you where you go. Check with your insurance agent for specifies though as policy coverage will differ by company.
Here in the DC metro area, one in ten drivers don’t have insurance, so I expect gun insurance would follow the same pattern.
Just like driving a car without insurance.
A separate charge.
NEW CHARGE:
Committing an armed robbery and being ALSO charged with no weapon insurance.
Next it will be to individually insure each bullet, with another charge being ‘chain of custody’ on a bullet used in the commission of a crime.
The lawyers AND insurers fall all over each other in new schemes to extort money from us, and if it came right down to it they are probably in collusion.
Few years ago I was raising ‘hell’ with the State over the Uninsured Motorist fee...You threaten me with jail, seizure of vehicle and tags, if I drive without insurance YET I have to ‘pay’ into a fund for others so they can drive without insurance.
The State blames the insurance companies and the insurance companies blame the states.....
Stupid private sector tax payers...Like their cars, lets pass laws making these stupid tax peons to pay to register these things over and over and over and over...every damn year. If anyone mentions the Constitution, or rights, just laugh in their faces. Make them pay 100 bucks each a year, and give them a little pink sticker to stick on these things for their trouble...
Thanks for bringing that up! Always follow the money.
It makes more sense for those who don’t contribute to their own defense and safety by purchasing a firearm and being proficient in it’s use to pay a tax to local gov’ts to cover the cost of local law enforcement.
These people are relentless.
What they really want, and what "gun insurance" amounts to is registration which always leads to...
...say it with me...
...confiscation.
the insurance companies are all looking to help. LOL
This is the reason why you need to kill criminals and not injure. To do that you need gun control ... of the accuracy variety.
Excellent! My nomination for post of the day.
The Governor of New York made a fool of himself by signing legislation attempting an end run.
The fools are assuming people will give a damn about their pitiful efforts and follow the law.
