Is that supposed to be some kind of gotcha? How exactly does not owning gun or working on a farm negate the fact that a gun is a singular purpose tool?
A thresher is a labor saving tool, it replaces the physical labor of separating wheat from chaff. Without a thresher a farmer can still accomplish the task.
A gun is made specifically and solely to move a projectile down range with lethal velocity. What labor is a gun saving?
All you’re saying is that a gun is used to kill/maim, which is exactly my point, which is why the “hurr durr a gun is just another tool” argument doesn’t hold water.
The difference between a gun and tractor is that a gun is a tool designed to kill. Don’t conflate farming equipment with killing machines
Says someone who’s never used either on a farm

How does a gun being a singular purpose tool exclude it from being farm equipment? Do you think a thresher does anything else but thresh?

Guns are useful on farms for pest control, euthanizing livestock, and self defense.
All of those could be accomplished through other means, therefore guns are ok, according to your logic

And clearly you don’t see why that’s necessary on a farm, which is exactly my point
