...one study, lighter colored cars are safer than darker colored cars. Black cars and black guns are evil; ban both.

1. From what I understand, red cars, especially if driven by teenagers

earn the highest insurance rates.

2. Well, that's all I need to know

lets ban them all.

3. Studies show that...

...darker cars are involved more often in accidents where there were serious injuries. One study found that brown cars were most prone to serious injuries, black and dark green cars were close behind the brown. Light colored cars like silver and white were found to be "safer".

If we're still allowed cosmetic latitude in car buying, why would cosmetic features of firearms be a cause for legislation?

4. Don't expect a coherent answer

from some of our more vocal anti's here.
But you do make a good point, if the govt. hasn't banned or restricted dark colored cars, why should they ban or restrict dark colored or added accessories on guns.

9. They shouldn't ban them, just make them off limits for those coveting em.

I know catch 23 and all.

5. I'm not disagreeing on color of cars in accidents. My post regarded insurance rates

not accidents.

7. auto, life, health...

...how exactly are these premiums different from protection money?
