Guns don't kill people, people kill people. I hate to sound like an NRA member, because I've never even held a gun before, but I don't believe gun themselves to be inherently good or evil. It all depends on the person who is using the gun, and for what purpose.

the object does not jump up and decide to shoot the people do in all sense a pointy stick could be "evil" too

What was the reason for excluding "neither" as a reason?  If we want to vote, this forces us to choose one of the two, as well as it is a way to make you believe subtly in the fact that there are such things as good and evil, and whatever morals you may want to think of, associated with a simple object.  A metal object cannot possess that which does not exist.

Nothing is good or evil.


The purpose was to sort out those who believed intimate objects were moral actors.

As the results show there are some who do and most who have this kind of mental dysfunction view them as immoral actors.  This unreasonable outlook is the main driving force behind gun control legislation.  The very active people sincerely believe that guns are "bad" in and of themselves and disconnected from the actions of those who use them.

well you gotta admit the only thing a gun can be used for is to kill. well you can also use it to hit someone but still its for harming.

knifes at least you can use to cut and repair things and fix stuff and slice meat and other stuff.

so is killing good or bad? THAT depends. sometimes if you need to defend yourself or family you need to give threat to kill at least. sometimes you gotta kill to defend the country. somtimes you gotta kill because you attackd.

then we know that killing is a sin if you religious.

so its not easy question.

I think guns are inherently neutral, but humans are inherently bad.

all depends on the person holding it,where its pointed,and their intentions with it. Other than that its an inanimate object,like so many others.

Neither. A technology is neither good or bad until it is used as such, and even then the technology itself isn't bad, but the people who use that technology are bad. So null vote.

Why didn't you post neither or neutral as an option.

That question was asked and answered already in this thread.

Their entire purpose for existence is to inflict damage. Thus, they're inherently bad.
