Voting is WAY less controlled than buying gunz.

We need deep background checks before being allowed to vote.

I don’t know about that. The reason cars today look like scarab beetles is because they’re so heavily regulated, all the restrictions converge on a crappy looking POS.

Speaking of regulations, did you know the annual growth in the Federal Register is measured in pounds instead of pages?
We are being regulated to death.

They are also way more dangerous.

And yet you have no Constitutional right to own a car.

Interesting

Who regulates them is another difference. If you placed the making of automobile regulations in the hands of people who hate cars and don’t want anyone to own them, ever, then you’d get the sort of laws you now get out of the gun control side, and for that very reason.

What you need to mention is how many people are killed and injured by cars, as well as the cost of the medical bills. I am sure that this info is readily available.

Maybe a better comparison would be to a motorcycle where you needn’t fasten your seat belt.

Next time somebody gives you the stale, old “You need to register your car...so your firearms should be registered too” argument — tell them, “Good point. Cars should not be registered either.”

running people over is much better for the attacker than guns.

they may drive and get away, they may be able to blame a car malfunction, and if they do get caught vehicular manslaughter is far less time than a murder rap.

Can’t be prosecuted for how I store my car (in sane areas, anyhow).

If I buy a car and give it away, I can’t be prosecuted as a “straw buyer”.
