[roadrunner]

The insurance thing seems wise.

Couldn't disagree more...

Fair enough. I have an atty in the family..,

They are just ignoring SCOTUS, like all good Californians. Bummer for the state. They won't see a cent from me. There are plenty of places to hunt.

 

[Hnthrdr]

Good grief man. Wonder what kind of proof they'll want for grandfathered firearms.

Another impossible to enforce law… that only law abiders will troubled with, once again this state shits all over our rights…

Power to tax is the power to kill, deny or delay a right. Requiring liability insurance on a right is akin to a poll tax. Plus what if that insurance rate skyrockets? You now are SOL and become a law breaker because you can’t afford it?

Another good point.

On the same note, insurance to vote would be a good thing. Just in case your candidate does something/proposes something illegal. Your insurance would pay for damages and attorney fees, and a hefty rate increase.

Seems like a single shot rifle for NR travel hunts…

The insurance thing seems wise but they’ll use it to backdoor a gun owner list.

What's wise about the insurance thing?

When you don't go out and vote, this stuff happens. Idiots vote other idiots into office.

Precisely the reason I disagree with it. Operating a motor vehicle is not a Constitutional Right, owning/operating a firearm is.

I do a lot of loss prevention stuff at work. Anyone tied into a project gets sued.

I can see a gun owner being liable for crime with a stolen gun. Especially the way CO is going.

Im still trying to decide if ccw insurance is smart. Will it be used against a person or benefit a person?

Do you have health, life, house, or personal property insurance? Why is gun insurance any diff? Aside from the politics. It is to protect you from severe financial loss.

Using it as a barrier for entry, a tax on a right, and others are the first thing that comes to mind on why it is an awful idea.

The gun owner is not held responsible for being a victim unless there is an other factors to allow that. Same as your car or any other possession.

 

[cuerro viejo]

sure a lot of anti gun and anti hunting bills coming out of CO, I was told on RS that there are no leftest agenda’s to end hunting and gun rights

The problem is not that it exists, the problem would be the government mandating that every gun owner has to have it. That's just more over-reaching government.

The problem is that the idiots outnumber the non-idiots by a wide margin these days. Voting will never fix that.

Right on.

 

[pods8 (Rugged Stitching)]

Still BS when this state can't even police their own in Denver that are just shooting randomly on Colfax nightly.

AND the democrats voted down a bill last month to increase penalties for firearm theft and possession of a stolen weapon. They don't want to punish the actual criminals or make anything safer, they just want to harass and incrementally make it harder to be a law abiding gun owner.

There won’t be for long the way things are moving in some states including CO. The attack on traditional funding of fish and game departments will see to it. All those hunters no longer hunting in CO will end up in other states and dilute the experience in them. We can only absorb so much loss.

Congratulations your new state mandated premium is $1000 a gun per year. Not only that you are now liable for emotional or physical damages that your inanimate object may induce.

How many civil liabilities do we now have because there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
