[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe in strict liability for gun owners. If your gun is used to commit a crime or unintentionally shoot someone, the owner is liable, period. [/quote]

So do I. If your stolen car is used to commit a crime, you are liable.[/quote]

This is a very good idea as well. Most vehicles used in carjackings are stolen vehicles themselves. Not too mention robberies and drive by shootings too.

If your car is stolen and is later used to commit a crime, you should definitely be held responsible for it. Absolutely. [/quote]

A car, a bike, a motorbike are means of transportation. A gun is a weapon designed to kill. A gun owner should be held responsible if the gun is not secured. Think of all the idiots who keep a loaded gun in the car, purse and so on around young kids. Toddlers would not shoot themselves or their siblings (or even parents) if the guns were not left around loaded by irresponsible owners. If you want a gun, be a responsible gun owner. [/quote]

I am so relieved. I was worried that cars could be used to kill people. [/quote]

Only about 40,000 people a year and climbing! Maybe I should get a concealed carry Suburban...[/quote]

Have any kind of vehicle you want. Just be responsible and don’t allow it to be stolen.

Because if it is, and gets used in a crime, you should be held criminally responsible. [/quote]

Why am I responsible for a thief breaking the law and stealing my gun?

What is the charge for being a victim of theft? [/quote]

Because you left a weapon unsecured. Why should people get robbed or killed because of your incompetence and laziness? Take a basic firearms class and they will teach you how to secure your firearm.[/quote]
