I agree that we need to treat guns more like cars. They’re similar, in that not everyone really needs one, those who do don’t need as much as they own, and on the whole, people feel like they need them more than they actually do. But regardless of personal choice, potentially dangerous objects should be subject to safety design regulations, mandatory user registration/licensing/training, and liability insurance. Does that keep some people from being able to afford to own guns? Perhaps, but in that sense, it’s no different to certain politicians’ approach to healthcare - it’s technically available to everyone.
