People are always quick to defend their precious little toys with the idea that "Anything can be used as a weapon!"
Then why the fuck doesn't it happen more often? You know what you don't hear about on the news at least once a week? People driving into large groups of other people. You know what you DO hear about on the news at least once a week? MASS SHOOTINGS. This includes, funny enough, countries where gun ownership is very low. Gee, I wonder why the fuck that is? And that's not to mention that bollards can help prevent car attacks, while they do fuck all to guns.
You know, I'd feel a lot better about these conversations if people were more honest, and just said "I don't give a fuck about kids getting killed. I like guns, and I don't care how many kids die, I don't want to give them up to protect a single one of them. Their deaths are an acceptable price to pay for my toys."

"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
