These are horrible counter arguments.
The only two that even remotely relevant are seatbelt laws and gun laws, the other two are not even laws.
For seat belt laws, there was evidence that such laws increased pedestrian injury rates and severity. Whos to say that outweighs the benefits of forcing a few people to wear seat belts that are already in their cars?
For gun control, to say this in american context is weird. The US barely has gun control so to say it like its absolutely needed is odd.

I assume the gun control law comment was a facetious point since America does not have it in any meaningful way and the US ranks consistently in the top for gun deaths.
