I should have been more clear I guess. I meant based on the NY event specifically. Seems awfully quiet.
Kevin's reply, based either on the Vegas or NY event, just says as long as someone pays for it with currency, one way or another, killing is ok.
In the business/political world, they do believe money can buy anything. Personally, I don't believe that.

For me, it sounds like he is sarcastic, turning the arguments of those opposing to gun contron on their heads. He's pointing out that you need a driver's license, which you only get after having passed your tests ad driving lessons, that a car insurance is obligatory and that every single vehicle is registered and has an unique plate. So basically there's already "truck control" but these points don't exist with guns, at least not the same way and as thourough as with cars and other vehicles.

The fact of the matter is that at the core of what he said, is that as long as someone pays money, whether it be for tough vehicle regulations, or tough gun regulations, to be able to legally have and use those items, then using them to kill is acceptable, considering innocent people are being mowed down with both guns, and vehicles. If he didn't mean that, then he should have said something more along the lines of "Yes, obviously we do need much stricter regulations and restrictions on vehicles, as well as guns". If he would have said that, he would be taken seriously. That's not what he said though. Which makes me assume he must be going against the Fox comment. While unlikely, he could be going along with Fox, and pointing out that the vehicle control we have now, which is much more in depth than guns, obviously isn't working good enough either, yet no one is complaining. I don't think that is the case though.
