Thread: Cahill vs McKie

The safety argument around gun control and registration don't stack up either.

Cars are registered and yet cars are stolen every hour.
Cars are registered and yet about 380 people were killed on our roads in each of the last two years.

If the safety argument was to be applied to driver licensing then it would be much harder to get drivers licenses.
The penalty for driving unlicensed or outside of one's license conditions would be much more stringent.

If the safety argument was to be applied to cars then all cars would be restricted to less than 60 kmh, roll cages, race seats, harnesses & helmets would be compulsory and vehicle safety checks would be required much more frequently.

More people are killed each and every years by cars and drivers and no restrictions have or will be imposed on drivers and their vehicles.

Gun laws/regulations/restrictions are easier to apply as guns are easier to portray as evil things and gun owners are a minority in the electoral system.
