*NY Democratic Bill Will Require Gun Owners to Carry Million Dollar Liability Insurance* Jim Hoft <http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/author/jim-hoft/> Feb 19th, 2013 [image: http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/ortiz-ny.jpg] <http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/ortiz-ny.jpg> A bill proposed by New York Democrat Felix Ortiz will force gun owners to carry one million dollars in liability insurance. Guns Save Lives <http://gunssavelives.net/blog/gun-laws/bill-in-ny-would-require-all-gun-owners-to-maintain-1-million-liability-insurance-policy/> reported: >From Examiner.com <http://www.examiner.com/article/ny-state-bill-to-require-liability-insurance-as-condition-of-gun-ownership>, A bill was introduced in the State Assembly by Felix Ortiz (D-Brooklyn) that would require citizens of New York to acquire liability insurance as a condition to gun ownership. Bill S2353 <http://assembly.state.ny.us/leg/?default_fld=&bn=A03908&term=2013&Text=Y> will require all gun owners in NY to obtain and “continuously maintain” insurance coverage of at least $1 million, or they will suffer “immediate revocation of such owner’s registration, license and any other privilege to own” a firearm. If the citizen fails to obtain the insurance, then by simply owning the firearm, they will be in violation of the law. It is estimated that the required $1 million liability policy would cost a holder $1600-2000 annually. If the bill is passed, gun owners will have 30 days to get the insurance. Here’s a look at the proposed bill.

ANY PERSON IN THIS STATE WHO SHALL OWN A FIREARM SHALL, PRIOR TO SUCH OWNERSHIP, OBTAIN AND CONTINUOUSLY MAINTAIN A POLICY OF LIABILITY INSURANCE IN AN AMOUNT NOT LESS THAN ONE MILLION DOLLARS SPECIFICALLY COVERING ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY NEGLIGENT OR WILLFUL ACTS INVOLVING THE USE OF SUCH FIREARM WHILE IT IS OWNED BY SUCH PERSON. FAILURE TO MAINTAIN SUCH INSURANCE SHALL RESULT IN THE IMMEDIATE REVOCATION OF SUCH OWNER’S REGISTRATION, LICENSE AND ANY OTHER PRIVILEGE TO OWN SUCH FIREARM. This is sort of like a modern-day version of the Jim Crow laws. Except this time Democrats are attacking our right to bear arms rather than our voting rights. -- __._,_.___ ------------------------------ Posted by: "Beowulf" <[email protected]> ------------------------------ Visit Your Group <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/grendelreport/info;_ylc=X3oDMTJmN2R2YmZkBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzIwMTk0ODA2BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTMyMzY2NwRzZWMDdnRsBHNsawN2Z2hwBHN0aW1lAzE0NDg5MjgwMjY-> - New Members <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/grendelreport/members/all;_ylc=X3oDMTJnaDhjZ29uBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzIwMTk0ODA2BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTMyMzY2NwRzZWMDdnRsBHNsawN2bWJycwRzdGltZQMxNDQ4OTI4MDI2> 1 [image: Yahoo!
