Chas...I agree with your bill and have no problem with the owners of the range having their rights protected. Developers who build houses downrange from long established rural shooting ranges that have become engulfed by urban sprawl, are most at fault here. That being said...every one of us should be outraged that this range is unprotected and in violation of state law for not having liability insurance. The homeowner, if he can prove somehow that he was shot by a stray round from the range, should be the owner of a new range...one that he can close down at his discretion. The current owner of the range deserves to lose his property. Proper liability protection makes a lot of things disappear...but an innocent citizen with a GSW from an uninsured range results in public outcry and new legislation to protect the innocent.
