Only a moron would place the responsibility for the conscious act of a sentient being on an inanimate object. Guns are tools. Nothing more, nothing less. They are no more intrinsically evil than say, a hammer. Guns cannot assume blame anymore than they can force people to commit crimes.

I have owned firearms my entire life, and never once has one tried to coerce me into committing a crime or an act of violence. What's your take on that? Did I somehow luck out and buy "nice" guns?

The only person or thing to blame for what happened here in Atlanta is that ratshit cocksucker, Mark Barton. I just wish someone in one of those offices had been carrying a gun of their own, so they could have blown him away before he killed as many as he did.
