People that use the argement "well cars kill people" Really when was the last time 27 people were killed by someone in one go?

Actually, the term road rage was coined during the freeway shootings in Los Angeles in 87 and 88 on the 405, 110 and 10 freeways.
It was weird driving during that time, drivers we becoming courteous drivers for a while, I wasn't use to that.....
Everything kills people, old age kills people, can't stop that. Doctors misdiagnosis kills more people than firearms. People still smoke cigarettes , more deaths than gun related, yet they are still legal.
I hold on to the fact that I want to keep the right to protect myself. If the gun I have legally is more powerful than the idiot that's trying to hurt me, that's in my favor. I didn't have to take a safety course to buy a gun, I had a DD-214 from the military.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
