Automobiles are arguably more dangerous, even if they're a more common facet of daily life.

This. Tbh if I were in charge of it half the people on the roads would lose their licenses.

To be fair, according to Wiki:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_vehicle_fatality_rate_in_U.S._by_year#Motor_vehicle_deaths_in_U.S._by_year

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_violence_in_the_United_States#Homicides

Auto accidents kill far more people than guns do each year. Also the whole constitution thing.

gun pwnership was a right when the US was young and needed regular citizens to up in arms and create militias
the 2nd amendment even starts off mentioning the need for militias

I think if they were weighted evenly that might not be the case. You'd have to break down guns to people vs cars to people, then split out accidents and murders to really get a start on the data.
