San Jose mayor proposes requiring gun owners in the city to carry liability insurance to cover taxpayer costs associated with firearm violence.
If approved, Mayor Sam Liccardo's strict new measure proposed Monday would be the first of its kind in the nation to curb gun violence, the Mercury News reported .
Under Liccardo's proposal, which would require approval from the City Council, gun owners would have to either carry liability insurance or pay a fee to cover emergency response and medical care for victims of gun violence. Under Liccardo's plan, liability insurance would cover the accidental discharge of a gun, along with intentional acts by people who steal or borrow a gun from a gun owner. He acknowledged that insurers won't cover intentional conduct by a gun owner.
