Because knives were used in the mass stabbing attack yesterday, we should not regulate cars

[The Straight Story]

34. Simply to show how dumb the gun laws proposed are

You don't need a license/etc to own a car.

If your logic in limiting the right to own something (like a gun) is because a few misuse it and you apply that same logic to other things (like cars) you wind up with 'ban cars'.

Some folks here want to ban people from being allowed to purchase a gun because of deaths and accidents. There are many deaths and accidents involving cars and knives. Therefore, if you aim is to protect everyone from something someone else owns that could cause harm and your belief is that banning such things is the way to go about it....then ban cars and knives as well.

That is where we the logic breaking down. We see how silly the whole idea is. Cars, guns, knives, etc are just tools people use - to ban them because a few don't use them properly is just dumb.
