When will it be required to have insurance on,
Golf Clubs, Baseball Bats, Hockey sticks, Tennis rackets, non motorcycled Bikes,  Etc, Etc, Etc, ?

It is a tax. The measure probably comes from the lobby of the major insurance companies. The mega corporations will collect taxes because they are the ones who are gaining more and more power. The government is increasingly becoming an instrument in their hands.

You will have no possessions but you will be happy (as long as it suits us)

Most States have a law that a firearm must not be accessible to a people of certain ages.

So BILLIONS of other people,
Are to be responsible,
For a DFI to NOT,
provide Information, and Education.
And Not Follow The Law ?

 No, because BILLIONS of humans are not CO State gun owners who fund the liability program, nor are there BILLIONS of tax-paying US citizens.  This would be considered "Spin" by some.

 How would you respond to someone saying gun liability insurance will save BILLIONS of kids lives?  There's BILLIONS of kids dying from negligent discharge?

 Your question was when will sports equipment need liability insurance.  When kids start blowing their faces off with tennis rackets.  Who knows, maybe when kids start killing each other with overhead serves.


 The problem is that criminal prosecution doesn't always compensate the victim/families, liability insurance is exactly for that reason.  

 This doesn't mean I am pro-gun insurance.  It means I can make an accurate and reasonable assessment of an action I do not agree with, instead of blowing it out of proportion making obviously false claims of it's impact.

But how will that work?

A criminal a confused person or someone under the influence of a substance shoots someone's face off. And the insurance company that insured the shooter, reimburses the damage?

That will be the day


 So like every day then.

 It will work like all liability insurance works.  A criminal a confused person or someone under the influence of a substance wrecks a car into another human, the insurance company that insured the driver, reimburses the damage.  This is normal in the US.

 There's always other circumstances, but liability insurance is for reimbursement to the victim.  Of course they will fight claims, but the purpose of liability insurance is for addressing the victim.  Criminal law addresses the criminal.


 CO firearm liability insurance covers losses or damages to a person, other than the policyholder, who is injured on the insured property as a result of any accidental or unintentional discharge of the firearm.

Thank you Eegore.

How often does that happen? Seems pretty rare.

Car accidents happen every day by the thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands world wide. I know many people who’ve had accidents, myself included. I don’t know anyone who accidentally or unintentionally shot someone.

Seems like this is a gold mine for insurance companies.

Most probably not spawned by the insurance companies.
Yet they are very glad to swim with!

It IS nothing but a ANTI-GUN measure.
Coupled with, a DOUBLING of the Tax, if you buy a Gun in CO.
Coupled with, an added State, License for having a  Federal FFL License.
All proposed, MANDATORY !

Gun Insurance has been around for several decades.
It was bought if you felt it was necessary.
It was NEVER. MANDATORY !!!!!

It is nothing but punishing a gun owner.
   And removing guns form Citizens.

Well what does one expect,
when the offspring of old hippies are elected.
