The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of required insurance being part of the gun control mechanism. To reach the modicum of reasonable moderation as use of a motor vehicle.
Licensing and registration are gimme's; required for even buying a weapon seems sensible enough for civilized humans. But the scalable cost of insuring a weapon against potential harm it can cause seems fitting. A bolt-action .22? Peanuts to insure. An assault weapon? Prepare the forklift to hoist the money to insure it. Caught owning an uninsured weapon? Confiscated weapon and proportional fine.
Insurance policies to pay all the healthcare and property damage related to the discharge of the firearm. If it exceeds the policy, the rest comes OUT OF YOUR FUCKING POCKET.
So, go ahead, defend yourself. It's probably worth it. Maybe even defend your property, if it makes financial sense. Just remember that insurance companies will likely charge you a slight premium (heh) if you have a pre-existing claim.

Here’s the bit I don’t get: people are apparently buying up bump stocks in case they get banned. However, if they do get banned, owning them is going to be illegal as well as buying and selling them. You would have to get caught, I suppose, but still – people are very stupid.

@Rook. Insurance. That is so rational, so perfect a solution in an imperfect world, that it can't possibly happen.

I like the idea of the insurance companies against the NRA. They're the two groups doing the most to hurt America, one getting us shot and the other keeping us from having national health care to pay for the doctor bills.

No, they understand the political situation. Any new gun legislation will have a grandfather clause exempting current owners, and private sales and gun shows will continue unchecked.

Depends if the ban is on the device itself, or just on new ones. For example, the 1986 ban on machine guns was on new ones. It is still legal to buy and own a machine gun that was made pre-1986.
So perhaps they are hoping that the language in a bump stock ban would be the same, and that their existing devices would be grandfathered in.

Gun manufacturers in the USA are already protected against product liability lawsuits. After all, if a gun is used to injure or kill someone, it is working exactly as it has been designed to. And while drivers are licensed and cars are registered, this will never happen on a national scale, because of course, the tyrannical gummint would use that information to confiscate those brave patriots' guns.

Good grief. What's the point of calling it a ban, then? In the rest of the world when a type of gun is banned, owning one then becomes illegal.
And if you hand a weapon in to the police, it is understood that you have relinquished all ownership rights and the police can do what they like with it (usually it's destroyed).

People will make them. Converting a semi-automatic to full isn't rocket surgery, but does take a moderate amount of skill. Making a bumpstock barely requires any.

Yep. A former neighbor of mine (30+ years ago) was arrested for having two homemade machine guns in his possession.

Legitimately owning guns, tinkering with guns, increasing their efficiency, all whilst a little worm wriggles in the head. It was said that Hamilton stroked his revolvers lovingly. On one occasion he asked a retired policeman friend how long it normally takes for police to arrive at an armed incident, the worm was getting closer to the surface. Big difference between that creature and this latest creature is the lack of any clear grievance. This new feature of the random gun massacre is liable to really screw people’s minds.

‘No clear motive’ means almost anybody could do this. Add that to ‘almost anybody can own a gun’ and it must be hard, even for gun nuts, to process.

The search for a "clear motive" springs from the criminal justice arena, where in any murder the murderer (if and when s/he comes to trial) must be shown to have the means to commit the crime, the opportunity to commit the crime, and some rationale for committing the crime, i.e., the motive. It's SOP in criminal justice to look for a motive, even though (as in most mass murders - Dylann Roof is an exception) there will never be a trial.
For non-police, the search for motive is an effort to "make sense" of the crime, for our own peace of mind. In the case of "ordinary" homicide, it's usually a relationship gone bad. Victim and perpetrator are/were nearly always connected to each other, and somehow love, kindness, forbearance, turned to hate and rage. The rejected lover kills the partner; the fired employee shoots the boss; the thwarted child kills the parent; the frustrated neighbor does in the householder whose fence or fruit tree impinges on a property line.
There's terrorism, too, of course -- where "the motive" may be understood as "service to a cause," however extreme or irrational (or futile).
More than a passing glance at such motives reveals them to be empty rationalizations. There's always a non-fatal way to handle such relationship breakdowns, yet those resorting to fatal violence seldom seem to have attempted, or perhaps even to have considered, these.
Clearly, then, there's more at work here -- in the US, ready availability of guns, a culture-wide commitment to quick, simple answers, a culture-wide belief in "might makes right," and no doubt more. In this culture, we also seem to have arrived at the fantastical conclusion that we're somehow entitled to existences free of pain and trouble; the first hint of same sends us into frustration and rage, and too many of us seem unable to manage these.
Searches for motives here are futile and misguided, even when we think we "see" one. What we're really up to, I'm afraid, is "otherizing" perpetrators, and so demonstrating to ourselves "this is not, and could never be, me."
We'd make a lot more progress in reducing these crimes by reducing the sheer volume of readily-available guns, of course. We'd also make progress if we started by understanding how any perpetrator could easily be any one of us (given the "right" circumstances, and given how near those circs are to any of us at any given moment), and why that's so, and recognizing that it's up to each of us to guide our culture into different channels -- a goal not accomplishable through violence.

Grievance of some nature has been the common factor in the very small number incidents of this kind in UK. It could be that this has long since ceased to be the case in the US.
So this freak apparently did it as the last tick on his bucket list? If that ends up as the only rational explanation I still said folk will have difficulty getting their heads around that.

Motive is not a required part of a prosecution. Nor is it required in the investigative process, but it often is used as a factor in determining and evaluating suspects. Many, if not most, crimes are solved with circumstantial evidence¹ rather than direct evidence.² The evidence in the Mandalay shooting is circumstantial, BTW.
The FBI searching for motive, in this case, is less to determine who as it is to determining why. But it is fairly stupid here. The problem is not why, but how. And this will not be fixed nor begin to be fixed.
¹Circumstantial: Evidence in which inference is necessary to connect accused to crime. Fingerprints, DNA, ownership/possession of weapon, etc. ²Direct: Eyewitness observationᵃ of the accused actually committing the crime. Photographic, auditory and/or video of same.
ᵃWhich is bugger all for accuracy, but is given overwhelming credulity.

But how can there be a "rational" explanation for so irrational an act? Why expect or want or desire people to get their heads around this? What we need to do is REJECT it.
The very act of "processing" such acts "rationally" is Step One to acceptance of the unacceptable. It's the beginning of the normalization process which leads precisely to where it has always led: to where we are right now. We groan, we "otherize," we tweet, we claim there's nothing to be done, lather, rinse, repeat until the next mass murder.
There ARE things to be done, but these don't include understanding WHY this particular individual took dozens of lethal weapons to a hotel room to shoot-to-kill into a randomly-selected crowd of fellow humans. Trying to wrap people's heads around THAT is a waste of human time and energy and likely even counterproductive.
What we DO need to focus on is listing the NRA as the terrorist organization it clearly is, banning private possession of assault weapons, closing gun sale loopholes, expanding background checks, legally clarifying the Second Amendment so it doesn't end up meaning "any damn fool can own damn weaponry she or he is able to get hands on, to deploy at whim whenever he or she feels a hangnail coming on."
We also need to recognize and change our cultural addiction to violence -- in sports, in entertainment (so-called), in child-rearing -- maybe even in language. Do you notice that Americans who fall ill are nearly always described as "fighting a battle" with their diseases? That US politicians are forever running for office to "fight" for us?
Opioids be damned. Our worst addiction is to the drug of violence.

Yes, bravo, absolutely. IMO, the culture needs a huge shot of "there but for the grace of God go I". Might also help with a lot of other issues, like cheering about people dying without health insurance. Instead of "I'm a rugged individualist until I need someone to blame."

And I respectfully disagree with you. I'm no longer surprised by anything the snollygoster-in-chief does. Throw rolls of paper towels at people who've lost everything and are living in a flood? No longer surprising. The s-in-c could dance naked on the White House lawn, and I'd look away and go -- but surprise? Nope.
But that certainly doesn't mean I accept his horrendous actions.

Any religion is susceptible to abuse. There is less within the teachings of Buddhism to justify violence, but humans will fuck up any philosophy.

Yes, it does. Here in Arizona, there are three things that one can bet money on seeing every day on the TV news: (1) someone got shot; (2) someone's house burned down; and (3) someone drove the wrong way on the freeway.

If you have a child, no smoke detector in a home could be a child protection matter? I believe it is here.
Might there be insurance implications? Thinking that nonsmokers get better life insurance rates, and home owners without solid fuel (wood, pellet) burning appliances get better house insurance rates, might homes without guns in them get better rates on the personal liability part of the policies?

It wouldn't surprise me if the NRA managed to sneak in legislation or regulation to prevent insurance companies from considering guns when assessing risk ... after all, they campaigned successfully to stop doctors from asking their suicidal patients if they have guns in the house.

I looked it up. It sort of says that doctors may ask if the question is relevant. It is filed on the 'net as "docs vs glocks". The doc can ask about anything else, but not that. Which is beyond stupid.
