I'm seeing a ton of people suggest that requiring gun owners to purchase gun liability insurance is part of their "common sense compromise" for gun control. If you support requiring a gun owner to purchase specific liability insurance in order to just legally own a firearm do you support requiring people to also purchase insurance to cover the liability of excersizing your 1st Amendment right to free speech?
I don't believe in forcing anyone to purchase insurance for ANYTHING. Why are Americans such controlling people to begin with? I thought Americans valued freedom.

I cannot imagine how requiring gun liability insurance isn't regressive as heck.

How is that 'progressive'?
It has nothing to do with "regressive" or "progressive". Owning a gun involves responsibilities, including paying for associated damages. That is the purpose of insurance.

100,000 people are injured by gunfire every year. That's over one an hour. And exactly how many people die each year from shooting off their mouths?

NOTE: I dont have any idea of this proposal. I'm speaking in generalities to make points...Not as an advocate of this proposal.
The 1st amendment does give us the right to speak. Communication is a Human function.
The 1st says that Congress will write no laws abridging the freedom of speech. There is no need for every American to purchase libility insurace when there are Libel and Slander laws that award the affected party.
Gun ownership is not a Human fuction. Gun ownership is a choice.
I, as an American, have the right to bear arms...but If I am not a gun owner, gun laws and regulations only apply to me if I own or possess a gun.
If I did suport this proposal, I wouldn't support that All Americans would have to purchase gun liability insurance because the 2nd amendment applies to all All Americans. Just gun owners.

So you want me to pay more gun liability insurance because I can't do anything about my bad credit right?

Yes.
Perhaps if you paid your bills on time you wouldn't have bad credit. As an insurance underwriter, I would look at your gun ownership and bad credit as a significant risk. Someone who doesn't demonstrate responsibility with their finances would most likely not do the same with firearms. This will get factored into your insurance premium. It's the same principle if a 19 y.o. male with two tickets drives a Ferrari, he will pay more than his mom driving a minivan and a clean record.
