Gun control is basically the same as DRM in that it only hurts the legitimate people and not the criminals/pirates.

legitimate people become criminals when taking a gun to do something criminal. If they didn't have the gun they wouldn't have become criminals. Thus gun control can never hurt criminals.

So... your arguement is that people don't decide to comit crimes, but there guns mind control them to comit crimes, and if guns weren't there, and they say... wanted to murder somebody... nobody would be murdered.

I mean, I know that isn't your arguement, but that's what it sounds like from how you phrased it.

Guns are a tool.  Period.

The actions one takes with a tool should never be ascribed too the tool.

No more then a hammer is reponsible when someone murders someone else with a hammer.
