Chipcom-you're comparing apples and oranges (inherently dangerous weapons v. transportation devices), for the sake of this discussion the two are not comparable. In addition, it is widely aknowledged that guns are being designed with increasing lethality, they also allow a shooter to attack someone they might not otherwise attack with an "up close and personal" type weapon (knife, bat, fists, etc). Guns are a unique tool, designed specifically as a killing instrument, they were only later adapted to other, sporting uses. They are, in other words, inherently dangerous. Cars, on the other hand, were designed as a mode of transportation. So, inasmuch as we're talking about vastley disparate objects, a useful comparison of the two, in this discussion, is impossible to make and only serves as a meaningless distraction. To bolster your arguemnt, you may as well count: rocket ships that have exploded, roofs that have collapsed, Twinkies that clogged arteries, heart attacks as a result of yelling "boo!", etc. Speaking of idiocy, I didn't think that I'd have to explain that to you...
