    Guns do not require someone with bad intentions use them in a bad way. A 4 year old near me blew her head off while her family was in the next room. Plenty of other people with no bad intentions have liked themselves and others with guns.

          Thing is, I’m only half joking. Driving really is about the single most dangerous thing most of us do regularly, people don’t take it seriously enough. I’d much rather have viable public transportation options, but I live in the suburbs of Phoenix so that’s not going to happen in my lifetime.

            A 2 year old is not going to kill themselves operating a vehicle, unlike a gun. Even left unattended, they maybe put it in neutral.

              Pretty sure I’ve heard of at least a couple cases where small children accidentally knocked a car into drive and caused serious damage, but that’s not really the point I was making…

                Cars are still designed to keep the occupants safe during a collision. Toddler is going to live no matter what way that car is pointed, unless there’s a second car.

                Accidental gun discharges don’t need a passing second gun to be fatal.

      Let’s rephrase - someone with bad intentions or terrible safety practices.
