What the Democrats are fighting for will not disarm terrorists, but may disarm some law abiding citizens. To the extent that's looked at through a "right to life" prism it harms the right to life.

in order to purchase a car, you must have insurance

False, or at least generally false. Also cat ownership isn't a direct constitutional right (you could argue its vaguely and indirectly covered by the 9th and the 10th amendments, esp. against federal restriction, but that's an argument for a libertarian and/or federalist reading of the constitution in general, not specifically a right to own a car)

For the victims of shootings, large and small, where has their right to life gone?

Assuming it wasn't a justified shooting, the right was violated by the shooter. You would have future potential victims be disarmed against those who would similarly violate their right to life.

So you would strip their ability to protect their right to life, while also violating their 2nd amendment rights, and their fifth and sixth amendment rights as well.
