In reply to the discussion: I don't care what anyone thinks about their right to own guns [View all]Senator Tankerbell
(316 posts)I would just say that I did not mean to suggest using automobiles as a regulatory standard for firearms. I was just using it as analogy. Obviously, implementation would need to be very different. Saying that guns could be regulated like cars are regulated is not saying guns should be regulated in exactly the same way cars are regulated.
Also, I live in Virginia so I guess it just seems to me like anybody can get as many guns as they want. And in general, I don't really have a problem with that. I'm just trying to think of ways to prevent senseless violence which is made much worse when using guns. Maybe there would be mass-stabbings instead but you can at least run away from a knife-wielding maniac. But then what about ninja throwing-stars...
