    Why don’t you check out the data and directly refer to that early than making more bad guesses?

    The original intent of a thing is entirely irrelevant to what a thing is used for. The sheer number of things in use in day-to-day life in ways far beyond original intent is mind-boggling. And then there’s the flip-side, the logical extension of such an absurd focus precludes assigning actual blame for use of a thing in the way it was designed.

    I’m not sure how you define easy, but requiring a background check is more than sufficient barrier for me. Then again, I’m not pants-shittingly terrified of inanimate objects.
