So, what you are saying is that if you choose to drive the wrong way down a road, I should bear the cost of insuring myself and my vehicle from your actions. You don't live in reality, do you? I would be OK if you were sentenced to life in prison without parole for having an accident without insurance. I should not have to protect myself against your stupidity at my own cost.
Yes, you should bear the cost of insuring yourself.
But examining your absurd appeal to ridicule above...uhm, what good does it do you exactly, if that same scenario occurs and I am insured? Do the physics of a head-on collision change? Is my action any less an initiation of force (which I am genetically incapable of, but I digress) because I carried the financial mitigation tool instead of you? And if you are insured, and the head-on collision was not your fault, your insurance will mitigate your losses, as they should.
Nothing changes for you whether or not I am insured, minus the size of the pockets a lawyer would go after in a civil lawsuit. Is that what bothers you? The lack of a potential dark lottery winning ticket?
Only the left would think gun insurance would stop inner city violence
They don't care about inner city violence, or any form of crime.
They care about normal people having the means to rise up and drive them out of government. Since the Democrats so constantly legislate against the will of the people, and are always dancing on the edge of getting voted (or worse) out of office. The idea of normal people having guns not controlled by liberals, scares them like nothing else.

Fine. I will move next to you and practice with my rifles and handguns in my backyard. I hope you have armor plate on your house, because it's up to you to protect yourself.
The advantage to me of you having insurance is that my insurance costs less. I will still insure against uninsured motorists, but that's a much lower cost than having to cover all of the costs of insurance against the acts of others. You having insurance means you bear the cost, and if you have multiple accidents, your costs go up with each incident, discouraging you from continuing to drive like an idiot.
Car insurance laws are tyranny? It seems to me that the arguments for requiring owner to insure motor vehicles would apply also to a firearm, or indeed any product that becomes deadly if aimed improperly.
which amendment in the US Constitutions protects you from the government for owning a car?
Actually there are...the right to travel, driving is a method of travel.
There is a legal difference between 'driving' and 'traveling'...legally speaking, driving refers to commercial type driving....Traveling is when you or I get into the car to go to work, to the grocery store, etc.
what about "crossing teh state line"?
like if you are an American crossing between states from Illinois to Wisconsin?
