you may have missed my addendum. ‘before purchasing a gun, one has to show evidence of insurance’
Not sure how many drivers only use their autos on private property - but to get a tag you have to show evidence of insurance and if it lapses, the ins.co. will notify DMV. DMV will require your tags be surrendered.
Your addendum doesn’t change anything.
You don’t need a license tag, a driver’s license, or evidence of insurance to operate a vehicle on private property.
The only analogue to firearms is a license to carry a firearm in public. But, in most states a background check is required.
Insurance requirements have been floated in a few states, but none have gone anywhere — because the number of crimes committed by someone with a license to carry is statistically zero.
It varies state by state.
Virginia doesn’t require you to have insurance. It does however require you to pay a fee if you don’t have it.
uh, no
someone else gets to determine if I qualify for “gun” insurance? Can be canceled and make me a criminal in a moment and creates an amazing data base for who knows who? Not to mention, it is basically another tax!
And, it will not change anything as far as criminals and their guns.
