UPDATE: A GUN RIGHTS GROUP HAS ALREADY SUED.
The San Jose, California, city council voted Tuesday night to adopt a first-in-the-nation ordinance requiring most gun owners to pay a fee and carry liability insurance
The Silicon Valley city’s council split the vote into two parts: the first approving the bulk of the proposal, including the insurance provisions, and the second approving the fee provisions. The insurance vote passed 10-1, while the fees vote passed 8-3.
The ordinance must be approved next month at its final reading in order to take effect in August. Gun rights supporters have threatened to sue to block the measures if they become law.
They are under the mistaken impression that gang violence is caused by the gun itself.
Democrat Mayor Sam Liccardo has compared the plan to car insurance mandates, which he credits with dramatically reducing traffic fatalities.
The problem with that is a car isn’t in the Constitution. The Second Amendment and self-defense are and can only be changed by a constitutional amendment.

Notice that in Rural America where The People are well regulated (Well Armed) there is very little crime. Criminals are not scared of the police, but they are scared of armed citizens who will shoot them if they get out of line. Basically all these Liberal gun laws do is protect the criminals by disarming law abiding citizens.
Guns are a construct of the white male capitalist imperialism and will be melted down to make eyesore statues of beloved CPUSA criminals.
Turn in your guns for a free EBT card to be used at the Cheech and Chong dispensary.
Nancy and Weepy John Boehner got you covered on this fine choom smoke session, comrade.
Cue the John Lennon and hippies use the minefield entrance.
Requiring car insurance did not reduce fatalities. All that requirement does is force financial responsibility on drivers for damage, injuries or death they might cause in a crash. Enforcing traffic laws and safer cars are the factor in reducing fatalities.
Sounds like a faux law begging to be ignored. Sorry libtards, buy you can’t change the constitution on a wim.
