Yet another school shooting

[Brakeman]

I was illuminating the fact that what someone uses as a weapon need not be designed as a weapon to be used as one.

The design of a weapon/tool such as a gun directly impacts on how efficient a killing weapon it is and how easy it is to use.

You could argue that you could kill as many people if not more with a jumbo jet, but you're forgetting just how difficult it is to high-jack a jumbo jet, learn how to fly it and have the ability to direct it where you want when compared with, let's say... a pistol. That's why your analogy fails.

And if you want to use the car analogy instead, the same applies, except also car related deaths are by and large accidents, not someone wanting to go around intentionally killing school children.

All in all, the whole argument that you can use other things to cause as much damage as a gun almost always misses the point.

So in essence you are saying guns are bad because they are the easiest to use, as psychopathic killers are inherently extremely lazy? Hmmm..
