Guns were designed with a specific purpose in mind, which is to kill. They have little practical use, where as cars are all about practical use.

I'm not saying that guns should be banned, just that there is a clear difference.

Yes. Use it to rob someone of their vehicle.

Sure you can. Just shoot the gun towards your work and jump on the bullet.

Well for starters they kill people. For continuers, they can be used by maniacs to kill a lot of people really quickly.

Irrelevant. Unless you think guns should be banned because they can't be driven.

Nobody needs more than 200hp, 15 gallons of fuel, 17 inch wheels, or holds more than 6 passengers. Let's arbitrarily ban vehicles that exceed any of these arbitrary characteristics. If you want to have any of these features, you'll need a special license that is very expensive, almost impossible to get, and takes a prohibitive amount of time to process. And if you want a vehicle that can go 0-60mph in less than 8 seconds, not only do you have to get the above license, it cannot have a model year later than 1986.

Nice analogy, Tc.

Lets do it. You need to study for a gun license, pass a gun license test, and carry your gun license with you AT ALL TIMES.

You will need to renew your gun license every once in a while too.

No no no you don't understand. I'm willing to compromise on that gun ban if it will mean the worst thing in the universe (even worse than pumpkins) will never bother me again.

He will say horses should be banned because you can trample people to death and get place to place faster than walking to kill more people

They can but they don't suck all the joy out of living like cars do so I don't particularly care.

I agree, it should be illegal to use guns without the equivalent of a seatbelt. And you should be required to get a gun insurance. And most of all, gun deaths should be classified as a public health issue, like car related deaths were.
