Is the cart in front of the horse? [View all]
"Suppose a family of guns were designed NOT to kill."
....
....
No, because no matter the stated reason for buying a gun,
the purpose of a gun is to kill.
I infer here that the message is that it is less evil(?) to buy an item, with murder as a reason for the purchase, than it is to design an item which has that act as its intended use.
