Though some gun owners have accused State Farm insurance online of not being a "good neighbor" toward them, two claims — which appeared eighteen years apart — have proven to be outliers and not indicative of any bias against firearm owners or manufacturers.
The most recent iteration of the claim is connected to a photograph circulating online of a letter dated 18 March 2018 from the company concerning a Minnesota-based gunmaking business applying for coverage:
State Farm Fire and Casualty Company is unable to provide the coverage you requested in your application because:
- we don't provide coverage for businesses engaged in manufacturing firearms.
