Letter: Poking holes in the cars vs. guns debate
Joseph Bianchi writes that cars kill more than guns. True, but cars are registered, licensed and insured.
No one is taking a car away simply because it's registered, unless used in a crime. I doubt the founders would say everyone has the right to a car.
The car was an improvement over the horse and buggy, so some people felt a need to register them. Today's guns are an improvement over single-shot muzzle loaders and should be registered.
Any argument the NRA makes can be rebutted by reason, logic and common sense.
