Owning any firearm should require both safety training certificate and license. pat_k Sep 7 #1

insurance too Skittles Sep 7 #2

Absolutely. pat_k Sep 7 #4

Insurance that covers what, exactly? NickB79 Sep 7 #7

gun humpers should pay more to cover the cost of gun carnage Skittles Sep 7 #10

Ok, but insurance doesn't accomplish that NickB79 Sep 7 #11

whatever Skittles Sep 7 #12

Thank you. grumpyduck Sep 7 #3

I think the automobile model would be good for starters... Training, license, insurance and renewal after a period. nt mitch96 Sep 7 #9

Mass shooters would switch to the Ruger Mini-14 or AK-47 style guns Kaleva Sep 7 #5
