There is a bit of folk-law on how to catch a monkey, you put an apple in a bottle. The monkey grabs the apple, but the neck is too small for the monkey to pull its hand out while holding the apple, but it cannot let go of the apple, because it wants it; so the monkey stays with the bottle and thus we capture the monkey.
There is a moral to this story; you can be possessed by the thing you hold in your hand. I see people that like their guns, and come up with all sorts of excuses as to why they should have them, even though they know how damaging to people in general these things are.
The delight in weaponry is destroying those that love it first, but like the monkey they do not have the intelligence to see it.
