That's a bad example, yet I see it all the time.
Ban cars, society will collapse.
Ban fully automatic and hi-cap weapons, hunters will have to reload slightly more often.
fully automatic weapons are banned.
Also, there are heavy restrictions with the use of cars. Speed limits, having to have lessons and a test before you get a licence etc. Why can't restrictions be imposed on how people use guns?
there are over 20,000 laws and regulations on firearms, you dont think thats enough? firearms are at least as regulated as cars are. furthermore owning cars is a constitutionally protected right, owning firearms is.

Did some research on it. They're not banned, but they're difficult and expensive to get hold of, so I'll give you that.
It doesn't matter if there are 20,000 laws and regulations if they're not any good. They're obviously not as regulated as cars if you need a licence to drive a car but don't need one to own a gun.

as for cars, like i said before owning guns is a right, driving a car is not. furthermore. you dont need a license or anything to own a car. i can go right now to a car dealership, and buy a car no questions asked. what you need a license for is to drive on state roads. and i think requiring a license to drive on a state road is a state level law, not a federal one (dont hold me to that claim, i might be wrong) states dont have require a lisence, but all of them have. Now for firearm, all but 3 states require you to take a class, and get a permit to carry a gun in public. even further than that, several states require you to have a license even to own a gun (just look at connecticut). firearms are one of the most regulated things there are in the US.

Yeah, they're state laws. Inacted indivdually between like early 1900's up until like mid 1950s.
