The way the NRA treats firearms, they would allow that 5 year old to drive. An adult can put their kids in their will, but that doesn't mean if they suddenly die while the kid is young, it means the kid can handle adult responsibilities.
Laws preventing them from driving cars, not from buying them. You're comparing apples to oranges.
STILL NOT THE POINT.
If the GOP and especially the NRA had their way, there would be no line. If a 9 year old girl can accidently kill her instructor at a gun range by firing an Uzi because a bunch of asshole adults thought it would be fun for her, it would say to me "While the girl didn't legally own the Uzi and technically didn't own it, I guess her lifetime of future PTSD is ok".
No, it is not illegal to give a car to someone who can't drive one. But why the fuck would you do that in any case? If you write a will leaving anything to a kid, there is still the morality of age use. The NRA doesn't give a shit about age use, otherwise why did a 9 year old accidentally kill her instructor because a bunch of asshole adults thought it would be ok for a 9 year old girl to handle an Uzi?
