Comedian Dumbfounded After Gun Lover Claims You Don't Need A License To Drive A Car

Jason Selvig interviewing gun lover

'The Good Liars' comedian Jason Selvig shared a clip on X of a gun lover responding to his question about driver's licenses by claiming that they're just a 'suggestion' rather than required by law.

It has long seemed that many Trump devotees will say absolutely anything to justify their beliefs, even when those beliefs are absolutely bonkers and bear no resemblance to reality.

A gun-loving Trump voter that comedian Jason Selvig recently spoke to is a prime example.


While debating whether or not gun laws should be tightened, Selvig used as an example the fact that one must become licensed in order to drive a car.

That is an unfair analogy for guns, though, according to this man, because he insists that driver's licenses are only a "suggestion."

The conversation began with Selvig asking the man what he would say to "people who think there are too many mass shootings." The man responded:

"It's the f**king idiots who pull the trigger! It's not the people who own the guns."

Those are... usually the same people, of course, which Selvig then pointed out and asked a follow-up question about whether it might be a good idea to make sure "people who are idiots" can't buy guns. To which the man responded:

"How are we gonna make sure of that? Do you have to take an IQ test to drive a car?"

Oh touché, sir! Except you basically do have to take an IQ test to drive a car? More or less? As Selvig put it:

"You actually have to take a test to drive a car. You have to learn how to drive it safely to be able to drive."

The man argued that that's not how you learn to drive a car, which is not relevant, since how one learns to drive is not the topic at hand.

The man then moved on to insulting Selvig's driving ability and mocking him as someone who wouldn't be good at shooting a gun, before Selvig interrupted him to ask what any of this has to do with anything. He did not have an answer, you'll be shocked to hear.

Selvig finally asked the man point blank if he had to get a driver's license to drive a car. The man claimed he didn't need one because:

"That's just a suggestion."

Being that that's not true, Selvig said that's not true, and the guy insisted it was, because you don't need a driver's license to vote so you don't need a driver's license to drive.

Listen, don't try to make it make sense because it doesn't make any for several reasons, among which are the fact that you actually do need a driver's license to vote in many states due to Republican attempts at voter obstruction. Anyway!

As you might guess, this video melted people's brains online.








The delusion is strong with this one.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

Can a man's haircut tell you his political affiliation? Scientifically, of course not... but we probably all have a gut feeling about it, regardless!

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

The video shows Kid Rock saluting as the aircraft hovers near his property, standing next to a replica Statue of Liberty by his pool. In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
