Gun insurance, like car insurance, is mandatory only if it inflicts damage to 3rd party, i.e. personal and property damage. If it is related to suicide, it is not covered or non-compulsory.
Of course, gun owners who obtained those guns illegally won't buy. But the mass murderers like Nikolas Cruz, Devin Kelley, Stephan Paddock, ...etc all bought their guns legally.
Common sense. Would any insurance company sell a policy to Paddock who legally bought 33 weapons?
Why not, people have that many cars.
Ok, let's run with this fantasy. Are the Police going to pull everyone over and demand to see papers?
We have millions of illegals driving here and we can't even legally arrest them for no license, registration or insurance.
The NRA wants you have to shootouts between "good" and "bad" guys. If they make everyone think everyone needs a gun good or bad, then everyone goes buys a gun and increases their profits.
Are you really that stupid to not figure it out by now?
Good point. So in your honor, I'm buying that S&W Sport 2.0 for $500 on sale. Bring it up again and I'll buy two and sell the other. You won't win this.
Gun insurance doesn't contradict the 2nd amendment. Neither does it affect the right to own any gun. It only deters those high risk group from owning weapons that may cause mass shooting.
But here's the thing, this is a horrible strawman. See stabbings have happened despite guns, but mostly not at school, though people with knives have gotten suspended. Also arson already happens but typically with abandoned places like old retail locations rather than new places like schools, unless someone is really stupid and has a grudge.
Right, because the more efficient option (ie guns) still are in play. Simple...the entire point of my strawman was the removal of the preceding item as an option.
I won't be surprised if the premiums for those kinds of policies would be pretty expensive. If you killed someone with that weapon, oh man someone could sue you for 2M easily.
Good luck collecting. What is awarded and what is received are often solar systems apart sans the lawyers. How many found guilty of a negligent homocide have a pot to p*** in let alone the insurance to cover you.
Of course, gun insurance is not perfect. But so far most mass murderers acquired their weapons legally. If there were gun insurance requirement, there wouldn't be so many fatalities.
How will his base react to the ban on making any gun into a machine gun??
