Comment on Why shouldn’t firearm manufacturers be held accountable for the use of their weapons in crimes?

I’m very pro regulation. I think speech should be treated exactly like cars. Insurance is required, licenses, that are required to be renewed every 5 years, training and regular inspections are not too much to ask for a voice that can easily persuade people to commit atrocities.

You jest, but there have been people convicted of convincing others to kill themselves with words. Hell, there’s been whole wars waged simply on the words of singular leaders.

Oh sure. Stories are the most influential too ever invented. Im just saying, its a lot easier to kill someone with a gun than it is with your words, and I think that difference matters.
