Yet it seems that guns are not really essential to the workings of the modern world.

Neither are cigarettes, twinkies, swimming pools, beaches (shark attack OH NOES).

[/ QUOTE ]

Each of those things has some utility outside of the ability to mortally wound. This is an important distinction between "dangerous" items and guns that shouldn't be glossed over.

Why is this distinction important? I mean, if it's important to you, that's fine, don't buy a gun.
