In case you did not notice the anology between guns and automobiles....

Guns and automobiles again? It's one of NRA's favorite dumb cards for dumb people.

And what would you know about the NRA?
You seem to attach some importance to that card. Does that make you one of the dumb people?

Look, it is gun advocates like you who repeatedly bring up this silly 'cars kill more people than guns' argument and refuse to see these facts.

1.  Automobiles are necessities, guns are not for most people.
2.  Guns are weapons designed to wound, if not kill; automobiles are design for transport.
3.  Automobiles are used much often than guns.

I need to repeat this, if you take away all automobiles even for just one day, the world is going to stand still.  If you take away all the guns, life still goes on.  Modern cars are designed to make them safer for both drivers and pedestrians; modern guns are designed to be more lethal.

Colt .45 was built in the early 1900s and still in use today. So much for your modern gun theory.

You are still living in the 1900s, that explains everything. 
Have a look at the type of pistols and revolvers manufactured in the US nowadays.

Modern cars are built like tanks , so people feel and behave as if they were invincible. It also invites rude or dangerous behaviour. Witness..... tail gating, cut you off, speeding, 100 car pileuips. (car "accidents " you say) ...... BS

My theory is all cars should be designed as light as possible, with an engine capable of the load required with speed governors. Forget this crush resistance crap. If you know you are vulnerable you are not going to tailgate or run that red light or risk your family. The people who ignore this will be weeded out pretty soon and then the automobile deaths will drop. When all that happens, talk to me about guns.
Public transportation seems to work well in England and big cities and sooner or later will be legislated. fossil fuels is not a renewable source. Our problem is not with trucks or transports.

All cars should be wrapped in cotton.  [joke]
That's something to discuss in another thread.  I am all for the safe design of cars and heavier penalty for hoons who endanger themselves and other people.

Cannot you see that this may be logical? Or are you only against gun ownership ?

I am not blindly against gun ownership but I am an advocate for better regulation and control.
It seems that you have a problem with that.
