I understand all the reasons why this won't happen

[SHRED]

No need to "gunsplain" me or lecture me on the buyback costs.

It's just a dream I'm having.

1. Why not liability insurance?

You want an AR-15, sure, insurance starts at $2,500 a month per weapon
Also a special license for ammo

2. I love that idea. But it must be mandatory. And proof on your person if you open carry. nt

4. They need to be banned

Maybe allowed at gun ranges to rent.
Maybe.

5. That (insurance against crime) would actually be illegal (TIL)

The NRA offered a policy like that, "Carry Guard" for if a toter got sued for shooting someone...turns out it's literally illegal to insure against unlawful acts, in NYS at least:

3. We managed it in the UK

But I guess we did not have 5 million guns per household...
