Stupid argument. Those regulations are specific to vehicles, which , as you know, are different in that they cannot be put in your pocket. Nobody sees a vehicle that can't be driven as a threat. It neutralizes the threat in a way that does not exist for guns.They, of course, are regulated, in ways very specific to motor vehicles. What a stupid thing to say. They are regulated as who who can operate them,, and where they can be operated. every vehicle and its owner is entered into a database. Every time the vehicle changes ownership, that is entered into a database. You must take skills and knowledge tests to get a license to operate them, and these licenses must be renewed. Every time you register a vehicle or renew your license, you are put through a database check to see if you have any outstanding warrants, unpaid violations, or any tax levies. You are checked to see if your license is suspended in your State, and asked if you are suspended in another State. Every car must have a large, visible, numbered plate, so that law enforcement can tell who owns the vehicle from a distance, both using their eyes and using cameras installed along the roads. Everywhere you are allowed to drive them, there exist thick books of rules you must follow, or you lose your privileges, maybe for your entire life.Actally, vehicles are heavily regulated, much more so that guns, as we realize they are dangerous. Kinda fell on your face with that comparison.Car Plows Into London Pedestrians In Suspected Terror Attack
Guess they better ban those vehicles right away.
Really? I can go out and buy a car as a felon. I can go and buy as many high-capacity cars as I want to. I can own as many cars as I want, cars that go as fast as I dare to go. I can buy heavy cars, light cars, amphibious vehicles, road vehicles, off road vehicles. I can buy cars with gas engines, turbine engines, diesel engines or electric motors. Cars are not considered evil if they are painted black.
No, they are not regulated. At all.
we do all of this precisely because we acknowledge that operating a car is a serious, dangerous matter.
no, you are saying very stupid things. The gun-car comparison is a stupid comparison on the part of gun nuts, and it makes you look stupid when you make it.
All of that is regulating the USE of a vehicle, not the ownership of one. I don't have to do any of that stuff if I use my car only on my own property or on a racetrack. Anyone can operate any vehicle on private property. Only the use of a vehicle on a public road is regulated at all. No database keeps track of when I sell my vehicle. The only way anyone knows would be if I choose to insure it. Otherwise its a private sale.
Sorry major fail.
Cars and guns are not the same, and try to remember who compared them. I pointed out that the comparison was dumb, only because their use and ownership is more heavily regulated. Which, it is.
