If one can afford to deal with the costs involved upfront, such as depositions. That runs into a lot of money, and there's only a chance to recover it if one wins. Plus one has to have a bead on who the perpetrator is. Plus if they're in prison for same, there's little chance for recovering anything.That's why we need a means to collect these costs upfront from gun buyers. If anything, that financial hit will make them a little more aware, a little more cautious about what they're doing. If one has to spend a princely sum to get that gun, they're more likely to keep it locked up so nothing happens to it. That's a desired outcome for the public at large. A knife is a bit trickier but not guaranteed fatal. One can dodge a brick's trajectory. Neither is as fatal as a stray bullet striking the aorta, with no notice. |
