Clearly what this country needs is motor vehicle control, not gun control. It's obvious from the facts presented in this quote that licensing motor vehicle operators, registering commercial and passenger vehicles, legislating insurance requirements, passing and enforcing speed limits and other traffic laws, setting minimum driving and minimum drinking ages, setting legal blood alcohol limits, and violating civil rights with check stops and photo enforcement have all been completely ineffectual at reducing either the risk or the occurrence of traffic injuries and/or fatalities.
To put it bluntly, all of the efforts of all the busy bodies, social engineers, and self-appointed saviors of us all, have done f*ck all to help mankind. The stats don't lie.* They unequivocally show that the vast majority of citizens make billions of motor vehicle trips safely every year. Meanwhile, a small minority of miscreants cause mayhem and get away with slaps on the wrists.
How do the logic-challenged react to all this? You guessed it - they'll create more rules for everyone to follow. Tragically, all the rules and all the laws only serve to shackle innocent bystanders. Criminals and idiots have always been, and continue to be, undeterred by the law. We taxpayers are the fools for continually buying the "we'll protect you" Kool-Aid.
*The stats don't lie, but they're so easy to spin and no self-respecting "liberal" ever passed on a chance to spin them.
