[QUOTE="soberups, post: 3192352, member: 14668"] It has been my experience that most people who advocate the "treat guns like cars" argument are being dishonest. They dont actually want guns to be treated like cars, because once you have jumped through the hoops and paid the fees to get a drivers license and insure and register your car, you then have [I]rights [/I]associated with that car. And that is the [I]last [/I]thing anti-gun folks want. What these people actually want...is to subject gun owners to all the hassles, expense, time, and effort of car ownership and licensure without giving them any priveleges at whatsoever. Their goal is not safety. Their goal is to make the entire process of gun ownership so expensive, so burdensome, and so riddled with arbitrary bureaucratic hurdles that only the priveleged elites are able to actually exercise their "rights" at all.
