Assault cars?
Maddened Fowl has some interesting postings on automobiles being used in slayings and mass slayings. (skim down on the page). Crackhead crashes car into crowd, 40 injured, a dragster goes out of control and kills six, "With today's high performance assault cars, there are many deaths & more injured..."

Plus there is nothing in the Bill of Rights concerning cars, the founding fathers had no idea of the horror that motor vehicles would havoc!
I don't know why the government is so unwilling to banish those horrid race cars from our nation's highways? You know, the ones that are only made for the purpose of breaking the laws?
A race car is any motor vehicle that has 3 or more of the following characteristics: racing stripes; dual exhausts; flash suppressor; alloy wheels; a wing anywhere; lower-than-70 aspect ratio tires; pistol grip; a speedometer that will read over 100 mph; less than 25 pounds per horsepower; high capacity gas tank; a lower-than-factory suspension height; [add your own un-favorite characteristics of choice here].
Nobody NEEDS any of that stuff on a car [that means I don't, and so I don't think you should either.] Plus, the Constitution doesn't give anybody the right to have a race car. And of course, it's for the children.
I always get a blank, deer-in-the-headlights, stare from libs when I mention that it is possible that there are more guns than motor vehicles in the U.S. - and yet motor vehicle related "incidents" and crashes account for half-again as many deaths every year as gunshots. And, what makes it so inexcusable is that cars aren't "made for killing" like guns are(!) Rather, car companies spends hundreds of millions of dollars trying to make their products the safest they can be. Further, with motor vehicles we have licensing, registration, annual mechanical inspections, proficiency requirements...and STILL these evil assault vehicles "kill" half-again as many people every single year as do guns.
I say, if it will save just one life, it's worth banning these rolling death contraptions.
