The Fascists Never Sleep

 Finally this tid-bit from the American Thinker by Olivia Murray: Calicrats fixing to require insurers to obtain information about personal firearms, then turn the information over to the Daddy Gov. This, in case you don't know it, is straight up fascism.

Murray first makes the distinction that the 2nd Amendment does not grant Americans the right to bear arms in self defense. Rather, it recognizes the pre-existing right granted by God. Then she goes on to talk about the proposal to use insurance companies to develop a registry of firearm owners throughout the state. Lying to insurance companies negates the policy, and since most people are required to carry homeowner's insurance on their property by their mortgage companies, they capture most of the firearms.

The bill, AB 3067, says: ‘This bill would require an insurer, by January 1, 2026, to include questions on an application for homeowners’ or renters’ insurance seeking specified information regarding the presence and storage of any firearms kept in the household, accessory structures, or vehicles kept on the property subject to any applicable insurance policy.’

Here are the questions from the text of the bill itself, via Hawkins:

In addition to existing regulations, an application for homeowners’ or renters’ insurance shall include questions regarding all of the following:

(1) Whether there are firearms kept in the household, including in any accessory structures, and if so, how many.

(2) Whether the firearm, if any, is stored in a locked container in the home, including any accessory structures, while not in use.

(3) The number of firearms kept in a vehicle located on the property subject to the applicable insurance policy, and if any, whether they are stored securely in a locked container while not in use.

Mind you, these are the same Democrats who think law enforcement asking about a person’s citizenship status, or an employer asking a job candidate if he/she has a criminal history, are unacceptable lines of inquiry. The state just wants to know if you have guns or gun safes and how many, and how you store said firearms—for your safety of course!

It seems fascists never sleep.
