So aren't bombs and poison if you use them right. I'm not arguing that guns aren't dangerous. I am arguing that you can kill a lot of people without them. You can't say that bombs have never killed a great deal more people than this man did with a gun. Shit, two airplanes aimed at a couple of buildings are apparently weapons as well. I simply find it illogical to vilify an object when it is harmless without stupidity or evil involved, especially when there are other equally dangerous weapons out there.
