Well, if you want to follow that thought guns ARE evil. (of course it's people, not guns, which are just tools, but still...). In today's society guns are used in wars to kill, by bad guys to threaten and/or kill and by good guys to protect themselves which often leads to kill of a bad guy. And then there is a fairly small group of people who are using guns purely for the fun of hitting the center of the paper and I am one of them.
Will I draw the gun if I am in real danger? Most likely! But if I have to take human's life with it, afterwards it will be reminding me about it all the time. So, I wouldn't want that gun... Perhaps it's a strange philosophy, I am not preaching it. Just explaining my position in relation of OP question about the value of the gun.
