 This is incorrect, Israel has very strict gun control.  Many people in
 Israel have guns but they have very strict laws on who may have them and
 how people get them.  Also their gun deathrate is not low relative to
 most European countries, only relative to the US which has an extremely
 high murder rate.

If drivers must have licenses, only outlaws will drive without licenses.
