Can I buy insurance against a Commie like Maloney trying to abridge my 2nd Amendment rights?

Um, that chart only goes up to 2004. It’s 2015. The “last decade” would start in 2006.

Some sort of “intellectual liability” insurance as well -

if you spout ideas, and those ideas get implemented, and cause harm, you are liable.

It’s not technically a lie ... it’s bullshit.

She doesn’t know the facts, she doesn’t care about the facts. She just says stuff that will support her agenda. Truth or falsehood is irrelevant to her.

“The results are clear: car fatalities have declined by 25 percent in the last decade”

What an idiot!

As though car fatalities have declined due to liability insurance....

U.S. Conceal Carry Association has insurance for its members.

This woman clearly HATES the Bill of Rights. She thinks she is a God to come up with complete crap like this.

The 2nd Amendment is a Right from our Creator, and not the control freaks in government that want to disarm the public.

What is one of the first thing all criminals do? They make sure no one is armed before things get real bad. Remember too this coming from the same congress that says it's legal for them to insider trade.... even though there is no such law. However, it's illegal for the average American to do it. Thus, they believe they are above the law. Laws only apply to the little people.

Although I have no doubt that many Republicans will probably think this is a great idea!

NO! NO! NO!

This would open everyone up to being sued by the damn idiot who kicked in your front door, when you then had to shoot them!

This is simply ASININE!

I’m sure most ‘gang-bangers’ and criminals are going to run like the Flash to the nearest insurance agency and buy a policy after the law is passed.


Yep. Can you imagine all of the youth gangs proceeding to the insurance office to buy an insurance policy??? Sheesh.....

But, consider if this became law. What would the reaction of liberals and race baiters be, if the cops started arresting gang members for not having insurance on their guns????

Insurance prevents accidents just like helmets do.

I think that’s what democrats call ‘statistical analysis’.

should we require gay men to have liability insurance in case they give a deadly and incredibly costly disease to someone?

Mightn’t this end up being de facto Registration?

A so-called federal requirement for gun owners to have liability insurance is unconstitutional for the same reason that Obamacare-mandated health insurance is unconstitutional imo.

More specifically, the Supreme Court had clarified in Paul v. Virginia that insurance is a contract, not commerce, regardless if the parties negotiating contract are in different states. So regardless what FDR’s thug justices wanted everybody to think about the scope of Congress’s Commerce Clause powers, the feds have no constitutional authority to regulate intrastate insurance of any kind imo.

”4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce [emphasis added] within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract of indemnity against loss.” — Paul v. Virginia, 1869. (The corrupt feds have no Commerce Clause (1.8.3) power to regulate insurance.)

The Logic-Free-Zone comes up with more intelligent, productive legislative ideas....to cost the law-abiding citizen more money to realize their Constitutional rights and discourage those rights at the same time.

Absolute crap.
