Overall, yes bodily harm, or the threat thereof, is the intent.

However the true intent of those companies (gun manufactures), barring any "smoking gun" (pardon the pun) discoveries that they are actually intending to INCREASE CRIME AND AID CRIMINALS, is for the purpose of law enforcement, personal protection and sporting.

You're not implying that S&W (et al) are in the business of increasing, aiding and abetting criminal activity are you? Right? If so, then that's a very serious allegation and one that needs data to be taken seriously.

This is ridiculous...

Read the fucking article people... Not just the names of the companies..

The article talks about companies who manufacture, support, or promote dangerous items and or practices. It's not about which companies go on killing sprees...

Gun's were not created for defense purposes as much as you think they were ,,,,,,or any weapon for that matter. They were created to defeat or destroy the lower scale weapon. Aka gun>sword>knife>

Bullshit. If the design was to defeat the lower scale weapon we would still product those lower scale weapons and no one here would know what a .22 looks like. I have a sword, knives, bats among other things, and a gun. If the intent was to defeat the lower weapon system why would i have the rest? I wouldn't. For that matter as an explosives expert i can rig the entire yard and my vehicles to blow when ever i want. So why own a gun?

Your claim is false. Intended use means everything when discussing anything that can be used as a weapon. Thats precisely why we have laws like using a vehicle as a weapon. When you get pulled over and they see a crow bar in your hands they dont immediately assume your going to change a tire.

So should we not prosecute or hold drug dealers responsible because they're only providing "tools"?

Whats ridiculous is we're discussing how bs this list is and your arguing were wrong for it. The list leaves everything out other then a potential body count from the product. Which is completely absurd.

I suggest you read your history books again and pay close attention to the intentions of siege warfare. This will eventually lead you to the purpose of the rifle and handguns..

You are wrong.

The companies are dangerous. Every single one of these companies either supports dangerous practices or manufactures dangerous items,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, of course with a little respect to the scale of the business.

All these companies are highly dangerous and highly lucrative...the point of the article is to raise awareness on how these companies exploit "Human rights abuses, murder, war, eco disasters, and animals" in order to generate revenues.
