You've made such statments dozens of times - effectively saying "but 
cars kill more people and we don't ban cars."

I've rebutted that over and over, pointing out that the benefits of cars 
outweigh the detriments - something not true of the type of firearm you 
passionately worship. (Despite not owning an example!)

And society certainly does _try_ to curtail drunk driving and speeding. 
But gun worshipers rail against any attempt to restrict use of guns.
