    It’s wild how much of a slam dunk 2A Evangelists think the car argument is.

    Also, cars are dangerous AF. Tens of thousands of people die a year because of them. Hence why we have licenses and maintenance rules and an unbelievably extensive road system with clear signals and lights.

      And despite all these rules, the number of car deaths is much greater then any other cause of death. It’s not a lack of rules that are the problem with cars (nor guns).

          If there is no reason for them anymore, because there aren’t cars as a form of private transportation then hell yea I’m on board.

        The point is the number would be even higher. Unrestricted/unregulated car usage would be utterly insane. Surely I don’t need to spell this out?
