It boils down to intent.......are envelopes made for the purpose of killing ?? Of course not, they are made to enclose(envelop if you will), items to be shipped or mailed. When used for their intended purpose, they are harmless.
Are guns made for the purpose of killing ?? Of course they are, when used for the purpose they were designed for, they kill, it's what they do......whether it's people or animals. That is undeniable. Your analogy falls apart under the slightest scrutiny. It's a silly argument.
