Conservatives in an attempt to stave off making their guns illegal, have put together a rather good bill. One that treats guns like we treat cars….
The idea is simply that by making gun owners more financially responsible for the outcomes their firearms may or may not produce, would make them better citizens….
Here are the salients.
The insurance should follow the gun not the owner…
Insurance should continue to cover guns that are lost, stolen or diverted…
The insurance should be No-Fault….
There should be a means to find the insurer of a gun…
Just when I think Conservatives are toast, they come through in a clutch. Private control of weaponry can achieve the same results as government control, without flipping on the libertarian switch existing in many of our backwoods residents…..
The bill is HR 1369…

Of course I like this since I’m the author of the quoted blog. I’m rarely called a conservative but I am looking for a solution through insurance that both allows guns and protects people. There is a lot more at http://guninsuranceblog.com about the subject. I especially am promoting the idea of having insurance required only of manufacturers but with the provision that the insurer only gets off the hook when another insurer (contracted by a gun buyer) accepts responsibility. That’s the trick in getting certainty of coverage without the government registering the gun ownership.

I propose we require all liberal bloggers to carry $500,000 in liability insurance just in case they libel someone.
If that doesn’t infringe on the rights of gun owners then surely it doesn’t infringe on your 1st Amendment rights either? Oh wait…….it does.
