Democrats want gun owners to buy insurance — gun owners don't want to

Californian Democrats are pushing for the state's gun owners to hold public liability insurance — if they want to hold a firearm. Echoing similar legislation introduced in other states, the legislation, still in its infancy, might apply to anyone already owning a gun, or shooters might have to provide proof of insurance before purchasing a weapon. Unsurprisingly, Sam Paredes, of lobby group Gun Owners of California, is against the idea, accusing the Democrats of trying to "price gun owners out of existence." He also suggested that the idea of having to be insured to own a gun would be unconstitutional. [Source]
