A car in the hands of an idiot is infinitely more dangerous than a firearm.
The fact that I am carrying a firearm is irrelevant to anyone else no matter where I am or what I am doing. It is no different and has no more effect on the people around me than if I have a pen in my pocket.
If we want to truly defend the 2nd amendment we need to get our society back to this understanding.
I have never seen a person do something stupid with a firearm. I have been to a dozen ranges in 3 states including times where dozens of people were gathered and firearms were all over the place.
Of course there idiots, but for every person who has done something idiotic with a gun you can find 100,000 people do something idiotic with a car. We all see that every day.
My experience with firearm owners is they are among the most safety conscience people around.
In fact that is what shocked me the most when I started looking into owning. I tell people now, "you know all those things you think about gun owners? guess what, NONE of it is true, I have yet to find one person where anything you think about them is true."
I go the range twice a month on average and I am still looking for that idiot that makes me want to leave. I haven't found one. I have crossed paths with several hundred people with a firearm in their hand at some point and I have not found one single idiot.
