    The stupid, it burns. Automobiles serve a highly useful—no, essential—function that has nothing to do with killing people, you idiot. Guns do not.https://twitter.com/WalshFreedom/status/965402432875499522 …

    And 115 people die every single day in the U.S. from car crashes. Where's the call to ban automobiles? https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/965325403219881985 …

        @WalshFreedom Also, autos are highly regulated. You need to pass a test to get a license. You need to have insurance. You need to register your car. The list goes on.

        And we regulate them, somewhat strictly. We require insurance, passing a written and performance exam. You get in big trouble for operating one without following the rules. Someone ought to ask him if he is then in favor of gun-owner insurance?

        Has to be registered & (in some places) inspected every year. Seat belt laws, speed limits, etc.. This argument by the ammosexuals has been debunked so many times, but their tiny brains can't figure it out.

        Don't forget we do ban unsafe cars, and the car equivalents of the AR-15, and the constant drive to improve car safety, we do not sit around saying we cannot do anything about the road toll

        And generally only a handful of those deaths a year are a result of intention to murder.

        So nobody drives without a license or insurance??? How about alcohol and tobacco??? Are those essential? None of it is... fuck everyone who likes anything and ban it all..... there’s no right answer to any of these... #goodluck

        Drive without a license and you get arrested when you are caught. Drive without insurance and you will lose your license and car.

        Car drivers are licensed and insured. Cars have license plates and are registered with the state. You can’t sell a car without letting the state know. someone driving the car, whether obeying traffic laws or not, without a license is breaking the law.
