Running out of reality to blame, they got to make stories.

Funny comparing guns to cars. I need a drivers license to operate a car, something I will be tested for and have to renew regularly. A car has a registration number that is registered to me and a license plate with the state that gets renewed regularly. Also insurance is required, the cost of which goes up if I'm irresponsible.

Owning and driving a car is not a Constitutionally protected right.

Yah and the right to bear arms is not absolute. You can't and shouldn't be able to own just a bunch of rocket launchers. Just like with the first amendment, you still can't threaten people. You can have sensible laws around rights.

Also, running the country off ideas people had hundreds of years ago is so backwards.
