Daily Show: Australian Gun Control = Zero Mass Shootings
Then let people own grenades, RPGs, flamethrowers, tanks...
Owning any of these are harmless after all... just like guns. It's not like their purpose or effect changes how we should regard them.
Owning a gun harms no one. It's a personal matter. It has zero affect on anyone else.

Someone get me a machinegun or better yet -- a flamethrower!

" But I'd have a real problem killing an AI that could think and feel." That's when you'd use a suitcase nuke as opposed to a flamethrower.
Why Violent Video Games Don't Cause Violence | Today's Topic
I love the 2004 Punisher game. I love it.
You can "interrogate" people in it, meaning you outright torture them for information or gratuitous, explicit death scenes. You can shove people into woodchippers, drill holes in their skull with a powerdrill, chromeplating heads or smash their pelvis with a prison cell door to pieces. Additionally there are four basic "interrogations" that you can do anywhere from banging peoples head open on the floor to threatening them with a gun (that goes off a lot). And that goes on top off the usuall ultraviolence you find in such first and third person shooters.
However, the game mechanics reward you for not killing people during interrogations and using them as well as the human shields tactically. I started playing for points, not mayhem. Which is really hard to do if you hide in a coffin with an M60 during a mob burial. It's nice to see the Punisher impaling people on actual Rhinos or crushing them in giant gears in Tony Starks living room but I'm playing to get the gold medal on that level, I wanna take the flamethrower to the zoo.
The game mechanics were really great and rewarded strategy and restraint with unlockable stuff. You actually became less violent in exchange for concept art and additional gear. That game is awesome.
The only thing that ever made me want to be violent was the way certain people behaved towards me or others. Games just feed my morbid sense of entertainment.
But it's never more than a bonus. I do enjoy it for the sheer brutality of it (and that sound - like a popping balloon), but it's never the focus of the game for me. In fact, most of the time, despite the fact that the game is based on killing, I am mostly concerned with the basic mechanics of the game, and the constant competition I am in with myself.

........When you think about it, it would be the first time the fire brigade would actually need a flamethrower instead of a water hose
Call 911, they will surely know how to fight ice!

I wouldn't want to be the guy at the front holding the flamethrower. A bit too close for my comfort
