Diogenes, nice mix up of issues. Using your arguments, guns are the cause of crime. Look, people do things. People act. guns don't act. Drugs don't act. People take drugs or use guns. The issue is responsibility. Assigning responsibility to inanimate things is nonsense. If the cannibal took the dru...
