We should eliminate highways. And cars. And farmers.

:RollingEyesSmiley5:

One of these events is not like the other.

We could markedly reduce guns, and the net effect would be positive. The rest of the advanced world lives just fine without so many.

[Mr645]

Perhaps slower highway speeds? Far more involved driver training?

Mass transit and work-from-home initiatives would save lives without having to make more laws. Of course, the net effect would be fewer cars, and that would upset the car-manufacturing economy not to mention the American car-culture.

He's trying to make it political. He thinks somehow people who die as the result of a car accident are the same as people who die as the result of a mass shooting.

They are not. In one case, it's truly an accident. no one intended to cause a huge accident that claimed so many lives. in the other, a person or persons intended to kill or maim a large number of people.

the Left will stop at nothing, including interstate travel.

I am headed out to the DMV driving my car to register it for new tags, requiring a key to use, insurance to buy and a license to drive. Of course, none of this was required when the constitution was written. But then they used horses, not cars. I’m sure my right to keep and bear horses is mentioned somewhere in the constitution. How else would I get to my militia training?

Cars are far more difficult to learn to use. I can teach someone to use a gun in an hour, maybe 2. And I can't find where a car is described in the US Constitution and how a car can be used to protect ones life, property or prevent a government from turning tyrannical

What, you expect people to WALK to the battle?
