Second, it is not a poll tax to make sure you are insured. If you use your gun in a legal manner that hurts a bystander, or if your child gets your gun and accidentally shoots his friend, their families have some chance for monetary compensation. For hospital bills, physical therapy, home care, if they should live.
Im not "flinging shit at walls to see what sticks." I'm not stupid nor ignorant.
There is no reason testing, including written and practical, in addition to psychological tests to own a gun. Then you have to have insurance. There is absolutely no reason that there is a protection for people because of gun owners who fuck up while doing something legal with their weapons
