How about all those rules for driving a car too...it's MORE dangerous to everyone than a gun. All kinds of drivers shouldn't be driving.
How about your last condition...you lose your license if you do something stupid with your car.
A whole lot more people get killed by BAD drivers than by guns...a WHOLE lot more...even counting the blacks killing each other in the inner cities.
It's a red herring when it comes to deadliness and risk. We have good enough gun control.

This is not a one rule pertains to every situation. We're talking gun carry ONLY, not marriage and not driving. Most of the states already have a reciprocal agreement for concealed carry. Too many folks that legally carry, find themselves in trouble when they drive across country and one state has slightly different gun laws than another. Maryland has started to check out of state vehicle tags to see if the driver might have a CCW permit, and then stop them to see if they are carrying in Maryland, which does not allow reciprocal CCW. Try proving that they had no right to stop and ask you if you were carrying in court. The problem results when a quick computer record check of your license reveals your CCW permit.
