If she had insurance for this that would pay the six figure medical bills, instead we will pay for it through higher health insurance.

She chose to have a gun. She should pay for the expenses caused by that decision.

Umm, now that we have Obamacare, shouldn't her medical insurance cover this?

In my 56 years on this earth I can honestly say that I have never met anyone that has lost a gun.

I've known folks who've had them stolen from their vehicles. You can prevent such things by taking the appropriate measures though.

Oh yeah, last I checked theft is still a crime. So there you go.

Where in that article does it say that she does not have insurance? (and not the stupid "firearm" insurance you want us to have to buy)

Probably does have medical insurance. The problem is that we all buy such insurance, and the cost of everyone's care is spread across the universe of people.

We don't make people who don't have cars buy car insurance. We don't make people who don't own homes buy home insurance. We don't make people who don't have boats buy boat insurance.

If you have a gun, you should buy insurance for mishandling, theft and use, accidental discharge, etc.

Thank you very much for making the best case against Obamacare I've ever seen.

You have to admit the irony. Seriously hope she survives, but lady with Facebook pages touting gun ownership, including posting about her 4 year old shooting, then gets shot by the 4 year old?

You can't make that up.

Irony there, yes. Like getting shot in a "gun free" zone.

If someone gets shot in a "Gun Free Zone" can that person sue whoever made that zone?

I get confused on the position here.

Shouldn't women need separate coverage for childbirth?

Bad analogy. We all need medical care for naturally occurring problems. People who own firearms should be happy to buy insurance. Probably wouldn't even be that much. Maybe $100/yr per gun owned.

The bad analogy was you bringing the insurance up in the first place. You said people who don't own boats or houses or such things don't need insurance.

Well, why is it mandatory for people who aren't sick to buy health insurance? Naturally occurring problems? You are telling me a 20 year old needs complete Obamacare coverage?

And yet, you feel insurance for a firearm is perfectly justified as being shoved down their throats. Just like mandatory health insurance for those who wouldn't be likely to need it.

Oh, silly gator. I wish you'd move on from this insurance scam you like to bring up. It really only makes you look foolish in the long run.

Getting pregnant only occurs to people who own vaginas.

But, if it pleases you, substitute any environmental change. I'll start: what if you have a treehouse? Do we need special treehouse insurance? Children fall out of them and break bones everyday.
