Require liability insurance for gun owners, and hold gun owners responsible if their negligence results in a gun crime.

Created by D.M. on December 24, 2012

Holding gun owners responsible and accountable for what happens with their guns is key to reducing violence but is getting insufficient mention in the current debate. Insurance on guns will help improve restitution and recovery for victims of gun violence, taxes on gun insurance can help fund improvements to mental health services, smart-gun technology, etc. and holding gun owners accountable for gun crimes because of negligence will encourage them to be more vigilant about their security, use and resale. These reforms can help reduce gun violence in the long term without violating anyone's 2nd amendment rights.
