I am not above having the insurance as a option if the home owner wants to cover the value of any firearms, but to make it required I am not in favor of that. Because most likely it would be very expensive.
Won't fly. The sad thing is the law maker knows it but still, they will waste our time and money over this.
Owning a gun is a Constitutional right. The only way this.would work would be if you can't afford the insurance the taxpayers would have to provide it.
It is about liability. The Ins. companies are worried about all the new gun owners and the potential of lawsuits when wrongful shooting occur.
I wonder how many claims might actually be paid out yearly for wrongful deaths by a gun. Maybe a 100 or less?
My homeowners Insurance and Umbrella Policy already cover this issue.
It's not about Insurance and payouts.
