”Guns don’t kill people, people kill people”*…. So if the ease of gun ownership isn't the problem, then in America, the average person must be 50 times more murderous than the average person in European?

As for cars, well, there’s a good reason we have training, health checks, licenses, speed limits and compulsory insurance. Also, although we allow 18 year old kids to buy and shoot AR15’s, for reasons of safety, even Mario Andretti wasn’t allowed to drive his race cars on the highway.
