Now where did you hear me argue we should not tackle that too.
I think car companies ARE doing the wrong thing by allowing distracting screen technology and GPS and cell phones. I think although they did add seat belts and air bags, they SHOULD get sued for putting out dangerous products.
BUT between cars and guns, only ONE is intended to kill by design. And only one industry is far more protected from lawsuits and recalls.
YES we should tackle car safety as well, we could start by getting rid of screen technology and REDUCING THE SPEED LIMIT.
It's called MULTI TASKING.
And please don't bring this BULLSHIT argument up again, this isn't the first time and you are not the only one.
YOU YOURSELF SAID you don't like the amount of firearm violence. I DON'T EITHER.
I also think car companies COULD do a better job too.
But the issue is FIREARMS, if you want to start a thread about cars, I'd agree we need to reduce those fatalities too.
Don't fucking try to make this an either or argument.

I've assumed Russia has been 'meddling' in every american election since at least the 50's. I also assume the US has 'interfered' in just about every election in the world.
I remember Mitt calling Russia the #1 geopolitical foe in 2012, and then Barack saying "80's called and want their cold war back." And democrats all simultaneously jizzed into eachothers faces across the country because Obama was so smart and clever, and Mitt was a dummy.
Of course, it was not a secret Russians meddled in the 2012 elections as well. Obama was well aware of it. So what's changed?
The answer is that the people who tell you what to think have decided they want this to be your main focus now.
No, not one bit.
I have known for decades that our enemies will always try to fuck with us so when you say, "This is nothing new" where do you get the idea I disagreed with you.
I pointed out those articles as a possible NEW tactic and again, it should not surprise anyone it goes deeper than you think.
If the NRA is willing to lie about risk of injury and death in the home, and willing to lie about cost to the tax payers, and YOU just said our enemies have always tried to fuck with us, AND I AGREE, then you are stupid to ignore this.
Yea sure Obama was aware of it, so was Bush Jr and Clinton and Bush Sr and Reagan, like you said. FOREVER.
That does not mean it is acceptable or should be. Maybe instead of giving tax breaks to billionaires whom don't need them, we should fund our security and intel more.
Maybe we need to say FUCK THE NRA, we can KEEP the second amendment but not support that lobby.
Just like we know are enemies will fuck with us, does not mean we should do nothing at all.
