Every year, about as many Americans are killed by a third party operating a vehicle under the influence as are killed by a third party using a gun. The DUII drivers mostly kill complete strangers, while the gun users mostly kill people they know.

You are far more likely to be killed by a drunken stranger with a car than by a violent stranger with a gun, yet the public clamors for gun control far more than for stiffer penalties or more enforcement to prevent drunk driving. Senseless.
