    Are you making some kind of weird whataboutist argument here? Road safety and gun safety are not mutually exclusive.

      They’re not mutually exclusive, but cars are much more dangerous than guns. Car violence needs to be addressed before gun violence.

          Solving car violence is achievable without stripping rights and inviting government tyranny. Solving gun violence is not.

            Now you’re saying something different from before. Before you were talking about the order in which the two problems should be addressed, now you’re telling about whether each one should be addressed and how. You’re not discussing in good faith.

            Safety regulations does not equate to “government tyranny”

            That’s the same argument made against seat belts, masks and vaccines.
