Void Where Prohibited
| I don't think that's the case with the boat, just like a car. But it actually could be possible for the gun, depending on whether your state has a 'Safe Storage' law - and how it is worded. You wouldn't be responsible for the actual crime, but there could be a penalty.

| I don't know that just because you own something that it makes you automatically liable in every case. I imagine the details matter. |

| quote: Originally posted by DMK1: Representative Caleb Hemmer of Tennessee along with 12 co-sponsors, believes that the vehicle owner, not the criminal breaking into the vehicle should be held responsible and has introduced a bill. Of course, that will not pass in Tennessee at the current time, but that is changing rapidly. I am surprised at the number of gun owners that support legislation like this.
So you expect Tennessee to become a blue state before long where the dems control both state house and state senate?? That would be amazing as now the state house is 99 Republicans and 24 Democrats and state senate 27 and 6. |
