This is inane. A gun has a single purpose for
existance - and that is
to take away the life of someone or something. One doesn't hammer a
nail with a gun, nor does one rake leaves with a gun. What purpose of
an AK-47? One doesn't go deer hunting with a 9mm. I have several
examples of large calibre shells - one is a 50mm and the other is in
the 20mm range. What purpose of these? One shoots ballistic
projectiles at living beings with a gun, in the hopes of terminating,
or seriously damaging, the target. Call me what you will.
Oh for fuck's sake, Billy. Guns are a natural reality of our evolution as
a species. When you come up with a plan for global Utopia then we'll turn
all the guns into 19" equipment racks.
In the meantime, enjoy the Biathlon in the Winter Olympics.
