Re: You can't legislate evil out of society

For those who don't understand a gun when misused is just a convenient device for those who want to harm other people.

Harming other people is the primary function of a handgun, so "misuse" doesn't really fit.

Knives' cars, fertiliser, civilian planes and our bare hands are all meant for and in daily use for non-lethal activities. This is the fundamental difference between a weapon and another object being misused as a weapon.
