Often *multiple* guns, you can damn well buy insurance. If they want to exclude hunting rifles and such, fine. But every hand gun at least should require a permit, gun safe, and insurance. And if you conceal carry, your rates should be commensurate with that.

Will it pass? No. Should it be supported by everyone who wants to stop gun violence, even gun owners? HELL YES!!!
