Running out of reality to blame, they got to make stories.

The person you're responding to is right, though: adding insurance costs takes a constitutional right and turns it into a privilege only for those who could afford it. We've seen what the insurance industry does with medical insurance, homeowners insurance, and every other type of insurance: they fuck the little guy over every chance they get. So you're just telling gun owners to throw money at a company that is just going to keep it, rather than tell them to take that money and attend biannual (twice a year) firearm safety training to remain in compliance with their license.

Not a single person in this thread has talked about subsidizing firearms training and making it mandatory, you all just want less guns in the hands of fewer people. So just say that, instead of hiding behind this false-altruist "Well, it'll only affect the bad eggs," yep, that's why good people are never denied medical treatment from their insurance, because it only effects the bad eggs.
