It was a single example as a thought exercise.
All the rest are words you're putting on other people's mouths.
No I'm not, that's literally the end goal of all people who are anti-gun.
There you go again, putting words in even more people's mouths.
Anyway, what would that have to do with the fact that guns are tools.designed specifically for killing?
Naa that's literally the end goal. It's pointless to sugar coat it.
Because I'm not the one suggesting that companies be liable for what people do with their products. Way more people a year die from alcohol than guns (it's like a 3xs as many) and alcohol has no other purpose but a vice, yet you're probably not going to suggest that companies be liable for drunk drivers who kill people, nor are you going to suggest that they cover all the alcohol related health issues...are you.
No, guns are just tools designed specifically for killing.
I mean I've already pointed out other uses, but ok...
No, you haven't. You've given some examples of how they are useful due to being tools designed specifically for killing, though.
Yea sports shooting is totally useful because they're made to kill paper targets and clay doves. Sure thing
Yes, it's possible to practice using tools designed specifically for killing. Cars are tools designed specifically for transport, and people have contests for driving those, too.
