it never gets passed the committee but they keep trying.

Another form of registration by making sure you have "proof" of insurance. Mine are insured through my homeowners insurance. All you have to do is give them a basic "list" and a estimated value and they are considered declared and will be covered in the case of fire or theft. As far as liability there is already enough laws on the books to make gun owners responsible for their actions.

 Another case of politicians  thinking they are smarter than us.

[Rattler]

Forcing gun owners to pay for liability insurance is just one more attempt to make gun ownership more expensive, thereby causing some current gun owners to give them up and also cause many prospective gun owners to think it's too expensive to get into.

When you get down to it, the government is trying to make a Constitutional right too expensive to exercise.  That, in itself, is an unconstitutional infringement on that right.

Your are correct...Gun owners would probably have to show a license, get a background check, and proof of insurance before a purchase of any kind.
