Should we ban SUV's, and Texas Drivers?

A person in Texas drove the wrong way on the highway and killed a family of four, and himself as well. He was a Texas driver, and his SUV was the "weapon". SHOULD ALL SUV'S AND TEXAS DRIVERS BE FOREVER BANNED???

Asked in the hunting section in response to those who think all guns are to blame for any murders.

Jeff P and Dr G, you kind of missed the point. Some people want guns banned because they kill people. SUV's are quite capable of killing as seen here. Should SUV's be banned?

Sarcasm noted. You pulled a non-sequitor. You see, the anti gunners rarely, if ever, demonize the killers, just the guns. Following the logic of blowhards like Joe Grace from CeaseFirePA, your question should simply have been whether or not to ban the SUV's. Texas drivers are not at fault, its the darned SUV's.

I guess if a person stops and thinks about,damn near everything in their home could be used kill someone.From a coffee mug to a televison,a con could find a way to hurt or kill someone.Like the original poster asked though,you will never hear of coffee mugs being banned.More people are killed everyday by drunk drivers ( 1 person every 13 minutes) than guns.Whens the last time you heard some liberal dem fag trying to ban cars?Well you dont.The same democrat fag that has no need to hunt or own a gun,still has to drive his sorry a$$ to anti -gun meetings and such

Yes, this is a list of everything in the U.S. that should be banned because a person can use it as a weapon:
All vehicles
knives (any sharp object really)
hatchets
chainsaws
any type of poison
rope, wire, cords (anything you can strangle someone with)
baseball bats
dogs that can be trained to attack
Alcohol (people drink and drive and kill others so because some people are irresponsible it should be banned altogether)

Really any type of tool that mankind uses for survival should be banned so we can't kill one another...

Living in Texas myself I agree that there are a lot of bad drivers here.....Not only what you mentioned but earlier this year there were about 4 cases just like the one you mentioned...but you won't ever be able to change the minds of the anti-gun freaks...

No, but we need "common sense" car laws

No spoilers or fancy rims, as this can lead to speeding and reckless behavior.

Put inhibitors that limit a vehicles top speed to 15MPH

Institute a "one is enough" policy

Limit people to one new car every two years.

Install Breathalyzer ignitions on all cars (only non-sarcastic idea I have. Friends daughter was killed by a repeat drunk driver just before Thanksgiving)
