..and so it begins. ORegon bill to require liability insurance shows true colors.

Holy mother of God. This bill would make you liable for a gun some dirtbag stole from you for a year after it was reported stolen, or until the dirtbag got his own policy on the firearm (wait...wut?) It also creates a registry, since before you can transfer a firearm, you would be REQUIRED to call the buyer's insurance company to 1)verify coverage and 2)tell them about the gun, including serial number. Failing to comply carries a $10,000 fine PER FIREARM.

There are several other goodies in this bill... have a look. The overreaching crap these antis are pulling just confounds me. Do they think we won't say anything? That there won't be any consequences?

The legislation is painful to read the first or second time. One would have to make notes and diagrams, with circles and arrows, to follow and understand the rules, penalties, amounts, coverages, who gets to do what - like the State Po-leece, humma, humma, humma.

It looks like defacto gun registration at the State level along with insurance premiums of $300-500 per gun.

IMHO

If anything like this even got suggested in Oklahoma, there would be almost daily protests at the Capitol with hundreds or thousands of open carrying gun owners. How does this stuff even get a hearing in Oregon? Oh, and this won't be the last place that this is tried. I sure hope that Oregon's gun owners are paying attention and don't let this sneak past.

Ha, nice

I don't see how this could stand up in court since they are asking you to buy a type of insurance that doesn't exist and isn't likely to exist.

Not sure if serious.

If I'm not mistaken, the great state of NY has introduced a similar bill. :finger:
