The way it feels as a gun owner is like this:
There was a terrible accident where a car was speeding with 300 HP and flew off the road and killed alot of people because the driver was mentally ill and just decided to floor it.
People want to ban cars with more than 100HP. To prevent it from happening again.
A Toyota Yaris can merge on the highway just fine, no one needs more than 100 HP.
People talk about if you need 100hp or if 150hp is fine. Some even say 80hp should be the maximum because they are scared of cars. Some say this would be dangerous to try and merge on the highway and cause more deaths that way in smaller accidents because cars with more than 80 hp would still be on the highway.
But the 80 HP crowd is very adamant that if someone mentally ill were to floor it, then it would have caused alot less damage. Never mind the fact that they probably would have just stolen one of the faster cars if they planned to floor it into something.
And of course at the end of the day its just a bunch of bullshit because you have 215HP and don't speed off the road anyway. And just enjoy having a fast car.
