I guess cars do kill a lot of people. We should make take tests before they're allowed to use them. And they should have to register them. Oh, and they should have to have insurance if they plan to use them. Oh oh, and there should be some kind of enforcement of proper use of them. Oh oh oh...
That sure solved all the problems with cars and automobile related deaths.
Didn't it dramatically reduce them?
Not the the point that they are lower than any other kind of violent death. Even with all the regulations and licensing requirements for cars, they still kill more people than guns or any other kind of object that can be dangerous.
Yes, but gun nuts are the dumbest pieces of shit you’ll ever encounter in your life. You're wasting your time by trying to explain simple concepts like this.
I don't know you but I would hope someone will have spent some time with rural peoples before making claims like this.
