Bill would force gun owners to buy insurance (http://www.kcra.com/news/politics/Bill-would-force-gun-owners-to-buy-insurance/-/11797268/18420808/-/lhen4v/-/index.html)


Democratic lawmakers are proposing legislation that would require California gun owners to buy liability insurance to cover any damages or injuries caused by their weapons.

The pending legislation, AB231, was announced Tuesday by two members of the Assembly, Philip Ting of San Francisco and Jimmy Gomez of Los Angeles.




Insurance lobby strikes again!

I wonder if the gang bangers in LA are going to buy insurance...

Better get that Sandy Hook choir warmed up for their trip to California.

Nothing stinks like an idea wrought by the collusion of insurance companies and government. This would have stopped mass shootings how? Meanwhile, insurance companies rake it in from law abiding suckers. It will also aid in registering all guns/gun owners in California, in addition to just "assault" weapons and handguns "importers" and whatever arms purchase records the future-confiscators maintain.

Just like Obamacare...

[QueenB4Liberty]

Yeah this isn't going to do anything. So if someone is coming at you and you have to shoot him in self defense to save your life, you're liable for his injuries? What?

Well, this is the same as infringing. The right of the people to bear arms shall not be infringed. Period. I hope they pass such a bill. That would push more of the good bastards towards Texas way. Good bastards are good. Texas has plenty of room. All are welcome. If you can't live here, then you can live in one of our surrounding territories. Oklahoma people are wonderful. Arkansas people are wonderful despite Hillary and Bill.

This all has to do with money. Californians are moving away in droves. Businesses are packing and moving away. To keep them from doing so, California has jumped on the bandwagon against the gun toting southern racist states.

In the war against tyranny, the disadvantaged should always consider such companies as banking and insurance along with those who work in such institutions as part of the government. The scam is perpetuated when they are claimed to be part of the free enterprise system. But these financial institutions are the farms of tyranny. This is how tyranny, which has its heart in the northeast region of our United Democratic Republic of fifty sovereign states, plants it seeds, its workings of inequity, so that it can reap the productivity of the people as a harvest. This is where the destabilizing economic recessions and depressions have come from. These difficult times aren't a part of nature, as they would have you think, but are seasons manifest by workings of inequity.

I'm pretty sure that's what they want. It's criminals protecting criminals. CA government doing what it does best: Lie, cheat and steal.

And when no insurance company is willing to write policies anymore?

Don't tell me the private sector can not tyrannize the people just as quickly as the government can.

And when the two collude together, the rights of the individual are well and truly fucked.

[Uncle Emanuel Watkins]

this

How does a crowd behave during a blackout? How about during the Superbowl? What would happen during a nation wide blackout? Lots of people would loot and riot. Martial law. Most wouldn't know what is going on. The government could then move in to remove guns for their own good. End of story. People turn towards the golden voice of Obama making statues of him while other people just bitch bitch bitch as they always do. Meanwhile, a government of snobs knows the people will never appreciate what they have had to do in their own best interest.
This is how it always works. This is why lead dogs in the pack are important regarding the disadvantaged and their fight against tyranny as, by their brave thrusting forward towards a much superior foe, they encourage the pack of weaker ones forward towards the meat.

Indeed. Like the banks, all insurance companies should be considered a part of the government. I'm not saying this to do anything about it as the truth about this should be sufficient. In the meantime, we should all be as peaceful as doves while having eyes of a serpent. The insurance industry is based up in that evil region of our United Democratic Republic of sovereign states with it being more specifically located around that former loyalist stronghold of the state of New York. At the heart of this new evil empire are a bastion of destabilizing antagonists made up of Jews. Their goal is to take away our statehood designations by relegating us all back to mere colonies and territories.

Of course, while what I'm saying here is all true, the Jews will surely turn to accusing me of being the second coming of Adolph Hitler. Meanwhile, the real second coming of Adolph Hitler, the one they have planted in the White House, continues his unrelenting war against the American people.

Good point. It will actually be a back door form of gun registration. No doubt the mandatory insurance records will be available to the State, if not passed on directly when the policy is written up.

[Uncle Emanuel Watkins]

You will be. You . . . will be.

[AGRP]

When are they going to require insurance to own knives, hammers, and bats? They kill more people than guns.

[DamianTV]

Like criminals buy guns legally...

[Acala]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Folks, liability for gun accidents is already covered by your homeowner's policy!!! Let me repeat, if you own a home, liability for gun accidents is ALREADY COVERED unless you have a specific exclusion, which you almost certainly don't. Do you know WHY you don't have a specific exclusion? Because gun accidents are rare and do not cost insurance companies any significant amount of money so they don't bother to try and exclude. They would be far more likely to exclude dogs or swimming pools.

The City of Chicago went through this drill a few years back, threatening gun owners with the need to buy insurance. The response was "fine". Non-event. Even if you didn't already have coverage under you homeowner's policy, the cost of a stand-alone policy would be next to nothing because the risk is so low. That's why Chicago dropped it. It was a non-starter. The reason the gun grabbers jump on this every so often is that they make the mistake of believing their own bullshit and think guns really are a big safety danger.

Excellent point, and why I often mention from my point of view the difference between a socialist and a communist is that socialists believe their own propaganda, while communists don't.

The classic sophist will always defer the way of a thousand points of light. This is especially true of a tyrant. In contrast, our Founders narrowed down to one point concerning the disadvantaged and their desires to control tyranny.
If one could ask our Founders, they would say that all governments are, at best, "Soviet." As I said yesterday, with this being something I need to apologize for, a God damned lawyer doesn't know what it means to be an American just because he or she is a God damned lawyer! In other words, our Founders would shoot every American today if they found out the only reason we think the United States is great is because of our God damned government. Hell, I did it again. Sorry. I rarely become a piss sore bastard who curses.
