Still don't see where the people are guaranteed the right to "Drive cars" here....en.wikipedia.org...

I do see where WE, US Citizens, are guaranteed the "Right to bear arms".

The car insurance comparison is about as weak as it gets.

I have never stated that people have been guaranteed the right to drive cars.
I have only discussed the legal requirements to be insured to drive them.
Get it right or it makes you look stupid.


Stupid huh.

No more stupid I guess then thinking that forcing US Citizens to purchase insurance to exercise a Right is not only Constitutional but will do anything to curtail violent acts.

So, since it is not comparable to vehicle insurance, why did you bring it up??

Because the Progressive thinks they always know what is best for others.

Don't see anywhere it is stated that "Shall not infringe upon the right to drive a car".

Plus, no policy covers the intentional damage/destruction of your vehicle.

No and insurance doesn't preclude it either.

Yes you can. It's called Compensation.

Exactly. That's the key concept people here are missing. When you give your INALIENABLE rights conditions or requirements, they aren't your rights anymore. We the people have been effectively removed from the decision making process. We are no longer attached to the political system, as intended. Our hired lawmakers have divorced us, the American people, from contributing to the formation of laws and executive decisions. Even laws effecting our own Constitution. This document, although great, has failed. Or perhaps America has failed?

The path down is steep

DO you mean, "Comprehensive"? As, in "acts of God", accidental or incidental damage, etc...

Not, willful, malicious, pre-conceived or intentional...Adjusters would LOVE to have clients like you...

No, Compensation. For when someone purposefully damages your car.

So there have been no cases whatsoever of accidental discharges of firearms in a public place. Really?

And that means what??
If someone does get struck with an AD, then they file a civil lawsuit. Done. Nothing else needed.

So do tell.


Uh, simple.
It infringes upon that right.
Infringement by requiring a US Citizen, exercising a guaranteed right, must purchase something before they can exercise said right.
Akin to a poll tax for voting. I guess next step will make people get "Freedom of Speech" insurance, because after all, I could say something that you don't like, which offends you or drives you to kill someone.

Again, no basic understanding of OUR rights.

...and who pays the damages in a civil lawsuit? How do they pay it? Can they afford to pay it?
Infringes upon that right? You still have the right to own a firearm, nobody is stopping that.
I do understand YOUR rights, give or take, they are no different to MY rights or anybody elses rights in a modern democratic society.
Maybe you want to consider the rights of your fellow citizens who would welcome such legislation, do their views not matter and are they less atuned to your constitution than you?
Get over it fella, its eating away at you, chill out and accept that a 400 year old constitution isnt neccessary fit for the purpose in 2013.
It happens, move on.

If it is the free choice to do so, then it is a non issue.

But, that is not what is being proposed.

Again, maybe stick with Canadians issues.

Right. And the fact remains that it is YOUR choice.

Ain't going to happen Sparky. I'll post where I choose. That's MY choice.
