        Anyone with a brain can realize weapons are tools.

            That’s not the point.

            You were trying to argue that weapons are not tools, which is wrong.

          Yes, technically weapons are tools, that’s because the definition of a tool is so broad, just a device used to carry out a particular task.

          That’s why I never said he was wrong to call a gun a tool, I said it was misleading, which it is. When a reasonable person thinks of a tool they do not think of a gun, you think of a wrench or a screwdriver or a swiss army knife, or something like that.

            No. A reasonable person thinks of nothing specific when the word ‘tool’ is said because it’s such a broad term.

            Trying to argue a gun isn’t a tool is wrong. It’s more misleading than calling it a tool because, again, it’s wrong. You’re only doing it to push an agenda.

              Again, I’m not arguing a gun isn’t a tool. In fact, in the very comment you’re replying to I said they are.

              But all of this is besides the actual point, you derailed the point of gun culture and availability driving gun violence with an ultimately meaningless conversation about semantics.
