Murder Insurance: The National Rifle Association is offering insurance for people who shoot someone
Despite the "fake news" that the liberal media would have you beieve, shootings of ordinary citizens in the U.S. is way down. However, the NRA has come up with a strategy that they hope will get those numbers back up to more reasonable levels:
ATLANTA (AP) -- The National Rifle Association is offering insurance for people who shoot someone, stirring criticism from gun-control advocates who say it could foster more violence and give gun owners a false sense of security to shoot first and ask questions later.
Some are calling 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.

"Murder Insurance":
"They spend millions lobbying for laws that allow them to 'shoot first' and 'stand their ground.' But that just makes it easier to get away with murder," Fulton says. She criticizes the insurance and implores viewers to tell Chubb and Lockton Affinity to drop the insurance — and to not purchase their products until they do.
Sorry to disagree Krishna but this is actually 'self defense" insurance for all those who can be in a world of trouble simply for defending themselves. The spokesperson for this insurance is none other than the gutsy Dana Loesch..

Not that there's necessarily anything wrong with that...
Please, stop with the bullshit. Defending yourself by using a firearm can be ruinously expensive even if you are 100% in the right. The insurance you speak of help pay the legal bills and such for anyone in that situation, even if all you used was your fists. It has nothing to do about boosting the number of murders. This article is a fabricated lie.
You have car insurance right? Wouldn't it be better for you to, instead of buying insurance take responsibility of your own actions? Does buying car insurance make you more prone to go out and drive recklessly?
Of course having insurance would make it easier for some of the gun nuts to take more risks-- knowing that they won't have the financial worries that would come from lawsuits when they use their weapons irresponsibly!
This is the type of irrational logic that assures no reasonable discussion regarding guns will ever happen.
