This is what I struggle with. I am not a gun person in any way, shape or form. Even something like hunting has no interest to me. However, I can respect that some people like hunting, and have the fire arms to do so. Even using weapons at a gun range, which I also do not have interest in, can be justified as sport.
Handguns and assault rifles have no real purpose to the general public. They are designed to kill people with incredible power and efficiency. I just do not understand what purpose they serve outside of police/military application, where they are being used for that exact purpose of killing people with incredible power and efficiency.
I am not sure what anybody could say to change my opinion on that.
