And how many lives will this insurance save? Probably about as many as car insurance or house insurance saves---zero.
Gun owners are personally responsible. If you shoot somebody you're not supposed to, they can sue your home owners insurance. They can sue you personally in the courts if outside of your home.
Insurance (on top of all the other Democrat ideas) is suggested for one reason and one reason only; to put up more hurdles for gun owners. That's it. There is no other reason because we don't have a problem in this country with people not being able to make claims for injury or death that are not settled.
And of course, criminals would not buy the insurance.
But hey......
yeah but, it would make them fweeel better no matter it stomps the rights of millions of innocent people
What they don't realize is that insurance isn't for the other person, insurance is for you.
I don't have health insurance to make sure the doctors get paid, I have health insurance so that I'm not buried in hospital bills should I need medical care. I don't have auto insurance to make sure the other person I hit is compensated, I have auto insurance so I'm not sued into the next century because I'm financially responsible for the damage I did to the vehicle(s) of others and their personal injuries.
If somebody unjustly shoots a member of my family, the last thing I'm worried about is how much money I'm going to get. I guess liberals think differently than I do.
So the insurance would be for the criminal then?
Seriously
Nope, just the opposite. You buy insurance for you. If you live in a state where a criminal can sue you, then you need to protect yourself with insurance.
Thank goodness I live in a state where I don't need that protection.
But the gun that is being insured is mine. If I buy insurance for my gun, and I'm not a criminal, and responsible gun owner, then the excessive cost of that insurance is somehow to guard against my own responsible behavior?
Really?
