Shouldn’t we require all gun owners to pass a gun safety class?


At risk of piling on to your moronic statement, let me note:

No license or government registration is required to:
Own a car, even if a juvenile.
Transport a car, even across state lines, openly or concealed, fueled or not.
Operate a car on private property.
Modify a car to make it more powerful or lethal.
Sell a car to anyone, anywhere.
Buy a car.
Etc.

When you treat guns as freely as you do cars (requiring only that they be registered for use on taxpayer-funded shooting ranges, and providing such ranges convenient to every soul on the nation) then get back to me.

I always thought shooting a gun was more dangerous than driving a car. My bad.

Cars come with mufflers and you don’t need the government’s permission to have one.

You don’t need the government’s permission to buy gasoline.
