I know you don't own any guns by the way you talk about guns. No gun owner would say things like "it's time to enact gun laws in the US", "Too many people have guns!" or "Anybody, normal or abnormal, can have guns in the US". The true nature of gun ownership and gun legislation in the US is FAR more nuanced and complicated than what you are trying to convey with these statements, which means that you haven't thought through any of these issues, which means you don't own any guns. The average gun owner who hasn't actually thought about gun ownership and gun laws in the US will be some dumb redneck on the complete polar opposite end of the stance you have taken here.In any case, your claim that cars are not used to kill people is patently false. I don't think I should even have to prove this to you. You already know this is false empirically. Second, I have already demonstrated that guns have many uses besides killing people. Third, even the act of killing people is not automatically a moral evil or even an illegal act. Fourth, it is an undeniable fact that the societal burden of car deaths is far greater than the societal burden of gun homicides by a ratio of almost 3:1 and yet we don't ever hear people like you screaming for more car control. Does the fact that a person was accidentally run over by a car make him any less dead than the person who was murdered by a gun? His manner of death is immaterial to the fact of his death and therefore immaterial to the burden of that death on human society. The societal burden of passenger car deaths in the US is 31,000 per year. The societal burden of gun homicides in the US is 11,000 per year. 31,000 people have to fvcking die every year so that you can have a convenient mode of transportation....
