Hello, I from Lubbock, Tx and I wanted to share a conversation I had with Geico Insurance today concerning gun ownership.

I called Geico Insurance to get a quote on home owners insurance.  After answering all their questions about the home and property, they asked me if I owned any guns.  "Of course I do," I told them.  They requested a list of guns and their value.  They asked if I used them for hunting or self-protection.  I told them "BOTH!"  Geico then asked if I own an "assault weapon."  I ask their definition of an assault weapon and they could not give a clear answer.  I told them I have a few AR-15s and some AK-47 variants, all legal semi-auto weapons.  The Geico sales lady put me on hold for 5 minutes and when she came back she told me they could not offer me insurance.  They told me I am a liablity because I own an "assault weapon" and I use guns in self defense.  Her name was Lynn Russ and her manager who made the decision is Rea Leach.  I later found out that Geico home insurance is Travelers which is own by City Bank.

What do you think about that my friends?  I know City Bank is a strong supporter in the Anti-Gun movement.  If you are with Geico it is time you find your self another insurance company!

I planned on dumping geico before I read this post. It's just iceing on the cake

THAT'S GOOD INFO AND EVERYONE HERE SHOULD DUMP THE JERKS AND LET THEM KNOW WHY. I ALSO WONDER IF IT IS LEGAL TO NOT INSURE SOMETHING THAT IS LEGAL, SOUNDS LIKE DISCRIMINATION TO ME! WHAT NEXT DO THEY PLAN NOT TO INSURE?

I usually just read these forums but I had to post this

The more I think about this today the more pissed off I get.  They offered me a good deal on home owners insurance, but after I mentioned I wanted my guns covered they refused to sell me insurance.  They said I'm a liablility to them because I could shoot someone with my assault rifles and that I had too many guns!  

I think I am going to call them and spend a long time on their 800 number, then ask about the guns just before I accept their offer.  Maybe we can make them realize how much money they are losing.  Not that I would use them for anything now.

Thanks for the heads up
Doc
