I chose an axe for a reason
. Axes have been a staple on the battlefield for millenia. Who said you are MISusing an axe by killing a person?
The difference between a firearm and an axe is the one is a missile weapon, and the other is a melee weapon. And while guns are designed for death and destruction, where is it said that they are required to cause death and destruction to
people. Hunting is a very legitimate use for a firearm.
Yes, one uses the right tool for the right job and all that. But a tool still needs a hand to have a purpose, otherwise it is an inanimate object. The point the NRA makes is that a firearm usded in an unlawful manor
is being misused. That whole "People kill people" thing. There are as many lawful uses for firearms as there are excuses from gun control advocates against them. One of those lawful reasons is in defense from those that would use them for unlawful ones. Laws do not stop people from harming others.
