Rich, Yet Woke

In a move I find stunning, Chubb Insurance is eliminating NRA insurance.

People have, in the past, referred to this as “murder insurace”. It’s for people who shoot other people with guns that they bought legally. I understand that if you accidentally shoot someone, that you probably feel bad enough without worrying about going to jail. I also feel strongly that we shouldn’t be doing things in our day-to-day lives where we might accidentally shoot people.

You may wish to defend target practice, or hunting. I’m not even going to argue that. I will argue, though, that no one needs a gun at a barbecue or a football game.

No one needs a gun at a barbecue or a football game.

I am soothed by the idea that it will now be more difficult for rich people to shoot their friends, or strangers, and get away with it. I mean, it won’t be impossible, they’re still rich.
