Reply #48: That is exactly my point. That car only driven on [View All]

[left is right]

your own multi-acre land is of no danger to anyone else. I don’t care if it is licensed or insured. But a gun out on the street, just like the gun could very well be a danger to me and other innocent bystanders. I want to be safe from stray bullets just as I want to be safe from drunk drivers or rageaholics. And if I can’t be assured of 100% safety, I at least hope that I will be able to be compensated for my medical bills and loss of my own transportation. If I die, I want to know that my family will also be compensated for the loss of my sparkling personality.
I realize that driving a car is an inadequate analogy to carrying a gun in public. There are no right wing pundits touting 2nd amendment solutions using cars. No one is using language that might cause a lunatic driver to drive his car into a gathering of liberal constituents. But does anyone honestly believe that if the 2nd amendment was about car ownership that we would not see a need to license and insure them?
