Thanks Richard! Finally an article linking guns and cars. I am amused/sadd=
ened when the gun nuts use the argument that cars are like guns and we have=
to say, no they're not. Indeed they're not; cars cause all sorts of proble=
ms beyond the obvious road injuries and deaths. I'm hoping that some of the=
momentum of fighting the NRA (read gun industry) will eventually spill ove=
r into fighting what I call the three-headed monster: car, fuel, and road-b=
uilding corporations. We've seen it all with tobacco; we're seeing it with =
fast food and guns; eventually we need to take on the industries benefiting=
from our traffic mess.
