What is the function of a gun? [View all]

To kill something/someone. That's it.

There is no other use.

So, why in the world does one have a right to own something specifically designed for killing, taking life?

It's in a class of its own. There is no other product on the mass market that has the sole specific use to kill living beings.

Well, if you want to include rat poison, be my guest, but I doubt rat poison could be used to wipe out an entire classroom of persons.

Again, putting guns in a class of their own.

But, we do regulate rat poison, there are warnings all over rat poison bottles. But hell, let's allow EVERYONE the right to own a gun, and fight measures that keep guns out of the hands of people who should not be able to purchase one.

Maybe everyone ought to be able to purchase their own vile of anthrax . And don't hold anyone liable if the stuff accidentally spills and kills scores of people, especially the manufacturer of said anthrax.
