OK, jenny, let me spell it out for you. The primary purpose of a firearm is to kill. The primary purpose of an automobile is transportation. Society, the economy, social structures etcetara are not going to grind to a halt without firearms. They WILL grind to a halt without transportation. Think about this for a while, try and let it sink in somehow.
