      If people start killing kids in school with them? Yeah, maybe we should consider it.

          We have age restrictions, licensing requirements, and laws that revoke your ability to drive under some conditions so ya. Just like gun laws.

            Actually, not like gun laws because we don’t ban “scary looking” models of vehicles. In generally we don’t even ban provably deadlier models or limit their usage based on need. Any idiot can buy a jacked-up F150 and drive it on any public road.

              are you crazy? there are TONS of models that are changed or cannot be sold in Canada due to a bunch of safety and environmental regulations

              We block new cars that have the wrong color indicator lights or the wrong color of seatbelt button. We block cars from other countries that don’t have a preset to have the headlights on.

              The jacked up F150 still has laws about its road worthiness, still can be taken off the road, especially if the operator does something stupid with it.

              Ya the more you talk about it the BETTER it sounds that we get more specific laws about guns just like cars.

              Lets add inspections when you cross provinces.

              Restrict its use if too loud.

              What if the operator shoots it too rapidly? Get a license revocation for a period of time maybe longer?

              Sounds perfect!
