Firearms are deadly weapons that need to be heavily regulated. Instead, we hand out firearms to anyone who wants them. You don't even need a mental health check.
Take firearms out of it.
Automobiles are deadly. Simply by being careless, one person with an automobile can kill multiple people - by accident. Because of this, it's heavily regulated. You have to jump through hoops to get a driver's license. You have to take a class, take a written test, get a permit, get insurance, register your car, do behind the wheel training, and then take a driver's test... And still you get a restricted license. Then for the rest of your life you maintain your license, and you can lose it if you are not responsible.
Yet any eighteen year old can get a firearm in forty-eight hours just by not having committed murder.
WTF?
I am not saying take away firearms. I'm saying we need to regulate them.
