What is the point of such a question ?
How about airplanes and swimming pools ?
But if you must...

How many laws are there about the safety and operations of cars vs. guns ?

These are the points of my arguments:
- cars are pretty close to being a necessity in our society, guns are not
- cars have laws written about their safety and operations, guns do not
- cars require a driver's license to be operated legally, guns do not

Now ask yourself why do we have more effective legislation for cars, but not for guns.

My answer is there is a hysteria over guns in the US, that has been
created and promoted by the NRA via Grover Norquist and fellow Board members.

As such, those who support the NRA positions on gun control
also share the responsibility for all it's consequences.
