(3,515 posts)In California where I live, I am required to buy auto insurance (and the police will check to see that I pay for it and have it) when I drive.
The price of my car insurance covers the cost of settlements and verdicts and claims from other people's auto accidents.
Yes. I pay for the hospital care and recovery and other losses that occur when people have car accidents. That is because I am required by law to buy car insurance even though I drive very little and don't have accidents.
So I pay my share of the cost of the deaths caused by automobiles. So does everyone else who drives and buys car insurance.
Guns should work the same way. If you own a gun, you pay for an insurance policy each year that covers the cost of the lawsuits and claims that people bring if they are harmed by others' guns.
A gun owner should be required to buy insurance for his/her gun.
