As you said Neal, vehicles of every kind kill a greater number of people every year in auto crashes. Should they be banned as well ?

I would opine that more children are "taken away" because of alcohol related events than by guns. But I don't see anyone pushing for more alcohol.
Some claim that the "only purpose" of a gun is to kill. Ok, accepting that argument I would counter that the "only purpose" of alcohol is to impair judgement and get people drunk.
Which is the greater threat to society?
Well the answer is what ever you don't personally enjoy doing.
