NRA Sells 'Stand Your Ground' Insurance

After all, who wants to shoot a black kid and then deal with prohibitively expensive legal stickiness? Like a good neighbor, the NRA is there... with "stand your ground" insurance in case you kill someone and are arrested for it.

Yes. Really.

What’s Covered:

• Provides coverage up to the limit selected for criminal and civil defense costs.

• Cost of civil suit defense is provided in addition to the limit of liability for bodily injury and property damage.

• Criminal Defense Reimbursement is provided for alleged criminal actions involving self-defense when you are acquitted of such criminal charges or the charges are dropped.

The basic liability plan costs either $47 or $67 annually, for coverage up to $100,000 or $250,000, respectively. Though the coverage amounts stay the same, a policy holder can add the self-defense insurance by paying $118 or $165 for the lesser coverage, or between $187 and $254 for the larger plan. (The discrepancies are due to the different prices for coverage on two different webpages from the insurer.)

I'm this close to selling robot insurance. I shit you not.
