When’s the last time you had a background check and waiting period to buy a bicycle?
They are legislated differently because they are different things that can cause harm in different ways. Pretending there are no gun laws is a symptom of being terminally online. I have nothing further to say on the subject.
Nobody has said there are no gun laws; just that currently there seems to be more interest in restricting access to ebikes than there is in restricting access to guns, though guns cause far more societal harm.
While I don’t have a direct reference to the numbers for this; injury and death caused by firearms seems to be far more common and more severe than ebike related injuries - at least in America.
Try buying a gun and you will find out the answer is no.
When’s the last time you were required to buy and maintain insurance for your gun?
Everyone should be required to buy and maintain insurance for their gun.
I don’t disagree; but the fact that you don’t have to insure a gun while you do have to insure a bicycle is the point here…

A couple of years ago. I had to pick up my bike a few days after buying it.
