It's cute when you get all excited about another thing that will never happen. All it takes is some back bencher to propose another gun control scam as a fund raising stunt and you give it life on DU.

This insurance scam, if it ever passes and before SCOTUS kills it, is a prime example of wishful thinking that will wind up with you and your ilk scratching your heads and wondering; "Gee, the NRA membership jumped by another million plus dues paying members, how did that happen?"

Just like all the whining and foaming at the mouth by gun control people is responsible for the record level sales of the AR-15.
