  People hold guns to be this magic device by subbywan2007-07-29 11:23:47
    Guns raise the stakes. by Didactylos2007-07-29 11:33:38
      not really. by subbywan2007-07-29 11:37:43
        What else are they designed for? by Didactylos2007-07-29 12:08:23
          Guns were designed for a variety of reasons by subbywan2007-07-29 12:39:24
            Show me a gun designed to prevent killing. by Didactylos2007-07-29 12:49:01
              Wait ... it's about *your* choice? by subbywan2007-07-29 12:55:20
                So many red herrings! by Didactylos2007-07-29 13:07:18

                    One failure to reason by Didactylos2007-07-29 13:28:37
                      Then you are incredibly naive by subbywan 2007-07-29 13:36:23
as per your own statement:

"Guns are not merely tools. They are tools designed solely for killing things. Claiming otherwise is unbelievably naive."

By your own words, guns *cannot* have another purpose. "Fundamental design axiom" indicates it *can* have other uses, even if it's not the primary goal, which is what I have already stated when you accused me of twisting your words.

You cannot have it both ways. Either guns have *no* other use, in which case your statement above of design goals is incorrect, or they *can* have other uses, in which case your original post was incorrect.

                                Yeah, but you can still kill with it by subbywan2007-07-29 14:23:02
                                Ah, dang. by CynicalRyan2007-07-29 14:27:45
