Cars are used in crimes.

Cars are manufactured as tools to transport people from place to place. Yes, they’re dangerous if used maliciously.

Guns are manufactured as tools to kill human beings. They’re dangerous on purpose - in fact, it’s their only purpose.

Please don’t tell me about target shooting or hunting or hobbyist collectors. The VAST majority of the guns sold in this country are not used for those purposes. They’re overwhelmingly sold to people who either want to kill someone, or think they might have to kill someone to protect themselves from other people with guns.

This is a seriously fucked up situation. And people will just keep dying until America finds a way to come to terms with the nightmare we’ve created by fetishizing deadly weapons.
