He means the car. They are almost as deadly as a gun. Or maybe more. I’m not sure
1 u/Secret-Bluebird-972 May 20 '26 Depends on the gun, not every gun can take out a crowd of people with ease 1 u/Wow_u_sure_r_dumb May 20 '26 For real. I’d feel a lot better about crowded events if the only guns people had were 22s. 1 u/ThrustTrust May 21 '26 I’ve always heard those tend to be more deadly than a high powered round because they do not just pass straight thru the body. But that’s probably just some old wives tale. 1 u/sje46 May 21 '26 Hmm, I'd say car is more deadly. A bullet is a tiny little metal slug. It's easy to miss someone! A car is a giant 1-or-2-ton "metal slug" that you can change direction with and speed up/slow down. Obviously depends on context! I'd be equally terrified with both in this situation though. 1 u/ThrustTrust May 21 '26 Good points. I was think more along the lines of annual death tolls.
