The Firearm Risk Protection Act, a bill introduced by Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-NY, would require all gun owners to have liability insurance
Today, Democratic Representative Carolyn Maloney of New York introduced The Firearm Risk Protection Act, a bill that would require all gun buyers to have liability insurance before they can purchase a gun and it would impose a $10,000 fine on any gun owner that did not have the insurance. The bill exempts law enforcement officers and members of the military.
Maloney says that since automobile owners are required to have insurance, so should gun owners.
While mandatory auto insurance is designed to compensate the victim of a car crash where the other driver is at fault, Maloney’s bill is really not meant to compensate a gunshot victim. Make no mistake about it, the purpose of Maloney’s bill is to make it harder for citizens to acquire guns. It’s just one more form of gun control, nothing more or less!
I doubt this bill will survive in a Republican dominated congress, but just to be on the safe side, all gun owners should contact their congressional representative and express their opposition to Maloney’s gun control bill.
Maloney is an ardent anti-gunner. A few weeks ago she also introduced The Gun Show Loophole Closing Act, a bill that requires anyone selling or transferring a gun at a gun show to run a background check on the recipient with the National Instant Criminal Background Check System and requires that transfers be reported to the attorney general.
Doesn’t Maloney rhyme with baloney?

What a crock of shit! With all the problems this nation faces this guy focuses on pissing people off. All he is doing is keeping his name in the news.
Should you have to take an IQ test before you can vote to make sure we don't elect another incompetent asswipe as president?
