Maryland bill would force gun owners to get $300K liability insurance to wear or carry
As the bill is currently written, local and state law enforcement officers are not exempt from the insurance requirement.
Maryland House Democrats introduced a controversial gun safety bill requiring gun owners to forfeit their ability to wear or carry without firearm liability insurance.
Introduced by Del. Terri Hill, D-Howard County, the legislation would prohibit the “wear or carry” of a gun anywhere in the state unless the individual has obtained a liability insurance policy of at least $300,000.
"A person may not wear or carry a firearm unless the person has obtained and it covered by liability insurance issued by an insurer authorized to do business in the State under the Insurance Article to cover claims for property damage, bodily injury, or death arising from an accident resulting from the person’s use or storage of a firearm or up to $300,000 for damages arising from the same incident, in addition to interest and costs,” the proposed Maryland legislation reads.
You're viewing a single thread.
Hahahaha I hope this passes. No insurance company would write those policies.
They should, but not for the kinds of assholes who want to carry guns everywhere.
You don't have to be an asshole to want to carry a gun around everywhere. When you're surrounded by people who openly discuss murdering you for your political stance, or your personal identity, or how you were born, and those people are intent on carrying guns to "defend" against threats that do no exist, meanwhile feeding themselves a steady diet of hate and discontent mixed with conspiracy theories... carrying may be the only thing between you and a lynching.
In short: take those people's guns and the rest of us can finally abandon these barbaric relics to the anals of history.
You can insure anything for any reason basically, it's just a matter of price.
But yeah, this would probably be ridiculously unaffordable for the average person.
