A common trait among the pro-gun crowd is to refer to a gun as a 'tool', as if they are no different from hammers or socket wrenches. In light of the nature of this debate, it seems intentionally misleading to do this.
The dictionary does not seem to provide a single example, other than the first (which is vague and can apply to pretty much anything) which accurately describes a gun.
I think of a tool as an object used in the repair or construction of something else, as most people do. What does one build or repair with guns?
