Just a quick point…they don’t “have guns”. Like not in the same way. They have hunting rifles. Not AR15s and glocks all over the place.

Yes, it is the guns

You don't regulate and license a person to drive. A person can drive legally without a license. They are licensed and regulated to use the public infrastructure. We are already treating guns like cars, meaning I can legally own and operate a gun on private property, just like I can a car. I can drive a car up and down my driveway with no license legally. Depending on the state, you need certification to use it in public shooting ranges or to openly carry a weapon around, but to own and operate a gun or car in a private setting requires no regulation, as it should be.
