Well maybe some don't want a free state?
Democrats propose $10,000 fine for gun owners who don’t have insurance
A contingent of liberal Democrats, led by Carolyn Maloney, is proposing a new federal gun control idea: mandatory liability insurance for gun owners.
It also calls for the federal government to impose a fine as much as $10,000 if a gun owner doesn’t have insurance on a firearm purchased after the bill goes into effect.“It shall be unlawful for a person who owns a firearm purchased on or after the effective date of this subsection not to be covered by a qualified liability insurance policy,” the bill text reads.The bill would also make it a federal crime to sell a firearm to anyone without insurance.
“For too long, gun victims and society at large have borne the brunt of the costs of gun violence,” Maloney said as she introduced the legislation.
How many of the felons roaming Chicago own a legal firearm? How many would buy insurance? They are already breaking laws. Does Maloney think that one more would make any difference? Does she think that it is law abiding citizens that are causing the gun violence?
