Maryland House Democrats introduced a controversial gun safety bill requiring gun owners to forfeit their ability to wear or carry without firearm liability insurance.

Introduced by Del. Terri Hill, D-Howard County, the legislation would prohibit the “wear or carry” of a gun anywhere in the state unless the individual has obtained a liability insurance policy of at least $300,000.

"A person may not wear or carry a firearm unless the person has obtained and it covered by liability insurance issued by an insurer authorized to do business in the State under the Insurance Article to cover claims for property damage, bodily injury, or death arising from an accident resulting from the person’s use or storage of a firearm or up to $300,000 for damages arising from the same incident, in addition to interest and costs,” the proposed Maryland legislation reads.

    @RagingRobot From Nazi’s militia, from school shooters, from your boss, your landlord and make sure your insurance really wants to pay for your claim.
    Sounds like you scared of nothing? It only proves you are a landlord, business owner, or you are a white man from Nazi’s militia.

      I only have insurance because it was required to get a mortgage but I am thankful to have it in case I need it. I need a house to live in and I don’t need a gun but I’m not even complaining that it’s required. So not because I am scared exactly but yeah that’s how I deal with risk. In a modern civilized way.

      I don’t lock myself in my house with a bunch of guns peeking out the window waiting for bad guys to show up. The average person doesn’t need to worry about that stuff.

        1. You can Google how much money those insurance company worth on stock market. You will also find how much those CEOs get paid.
        2. You don’t need to pay for mortgage for your house or food if WE are united with guns on our hand.
        3. Civilized being exploited and killed?
        4. No you don’t need to lock yourself.
