I know *one* person who was killed by a gun.
[suicide]
I know [or rather, knew] several people who were killed by vehicles.
Bizarrely, I do not feel a need to ban cars.
Same with me..I don’t know anybody who was killed by a gun but I know a LOT who were killed by cars and one who drowned on vacation in Puerto Rico. I know so many people who were killed by cars sometimes I don’t believe it myself. One friend was killed on a motorcycle (a lady pulled out of a side street in front of him and when he tried to avoid her he went into oncoming traffic) then 4 I knew in Germany were killed when they slammed underneath a pickup truck. I had a cousin killed on the Long Island expressway 25 years ago, an uncle killed driving a tractor trailer in 1980 (he fell asleep and went down a ditch and the trailer flipped and crushed his cab)...I even witnessed 4 people at once get hit by a car going 50 miles and hour on Hempstead turnpike around 1972, all of them where killed. Their kid ran out into the highway (at night no less) and when his family ran after him that was all she wrote. I remember the noise and the bodies flying and the kid who was actually still alive in the street trying to get up.
That’s how vicious cars are. Any talk of banning those? Nope! Any talk of restricting who can drive? Nope!
This proves to me that this is not about gun control at all but people control which makes their attempts at gun control all the more dangerous. People need to wake up to that NOW or this country is going to be absolute hell on earth to live in.
I’ve had several friends die early. One by small arms fire (in combat). One by blunt force trauma (a tire iron in a parking lot). One by stabbing (a four inch blade). One by suicide (poorly disguised as a motorcycle accident). One in an inner tubing (snow) mishap. One from leukemia. I’d gladly ban leukemia.
