Gun ownership is protected by the Second Amendment. Car ownership is not. But cars can also be used to kill. Ask the doctor what a body looks like after it has been hit by a car going 60 mph through a crowd. Perhaps we need to ban SUVs because those vehicles cause much more damage than a regular car. Better yet, we should only allow mopeds and skateboards because no one will die if those are used as weapons to kill others. Who needs a car to go grocery shopping if you have a backpack and a skateboard?
