No no you still don't understand. Your point is not valid to me : everything can be a deadly weapon in this damn world. I can cut a throat with a piece of paper if I want, this is not the point at all.
Guns have been MADE to kill. They have been created for that purpose. And they do it very good. Faster than piece of paper, faster than a car even !

One tiny click on the trigger and a life is taken away in less than a second.

Responsible or not, who knows what can happen.
Swords and Axes were made to kill people as well. What is the diffrence between people owning a sword or a gun? You might say that guns can kill faster or easier. Well , in the hands of your average person the same could be said for an ax. It might even be easier to kill with an ax because you dont have to aim or reload it. Nacht brought up martial arts. I dont know about the rest of you , but I would rather face down someone with a gun that face down my instructor. With a gun there is a chance I might get killed, with my instructor it is a certainty. The point is guns arent the problem, people are. Chances are if you are following the gun laws you arent the type to go on a killing spree any time soon.
