NRA's Carry Guard comes under fire as "murder insurance

The National Rifle Association wants to financially cover gun owners who shoot another person, but some critics are asking if the new product is essentially "murder insurance."

Gun-control advocates say the new insurance product could foster more violence and give gun owners a false sense of security to shoot first and ask questions later.

Some are dubbing it "murder insurance," and say that rather than promoting personal responsibility and protection, it encourages gun owners to take action and not worry about the consequences. And, they say, it's being marketed in a way that feeds on the nation's racial divisions.

Guns Down, a gun-control group formed last year, is running an ad campaign to criticize the NRA's new insurance. It's just the latest group to take aim at the NRA's offering.
