We can fix the gun problem and make America safer without an expensive, dangerous, and futile “War on Guns.”
To solve the problem of keeping guns out of the wrong hands we must use an idea that limits losses from many other hazards: insurance.
Mandatory insurance makes people be responsible for choices that impose risks on others. We must require gun owners at any instant (maker, seller or buyer) have liability insurance to cover any harms that weapon causes. |

| Sounds suspiciously like a poll tax on an inalienable right. Nice try, but this will never fly in court. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
