Thinking about it, I figure that maniac Loughner would have been far more effective if he had used an 18-wheeler. He wouldn't have had to stop and reload an 18-wheeler - he could even have backed up or driven in circles. An 18-wheeler would have been a far more effective weapon in a crowded Safeway parking lot, so reason would have it that 18-wheelers are more dangerous than handguns.
Such a law would be relatively easy to enforce, as carrying a concealed 18-wheeler would be rather difficult.
Of course, once we ban 18-wheelers, any ban on 10-wheelers, or pickup trucks, or cars, or even motorcycles would be out of the question. Right?
Just thinking....... some communities already require people to register their bicycles, don't they?
