Rather than address the issue that firearms are weapons, and as such are intended to cause injury or death if used properly. The gun-car (or other similar argument) would rather deflect the issue onto other objects which have utility for purposes other than to injure or kill.

• Firearms are weapons with the purpose to injure or kill.
  
• When cars are used properly, as pretty much are, they provide transportation.
• When used properly, guns injure or kill.
