On Tuesday a Dutch court sentenced the programmer Alexey Pertsev to five years in prison. The court found him guilty of money laundering because the "Tornado Cash" software he developed enables criminals to carry out completely anonymous and untraceable crypto transactions (so-called "crypto mixer")
They’re not necessarily made for killing. Most people defending themself with a pistol (whose only purpose is for shooting humans) would not want to shoot for the head or chest
No, guns are tools designed specifically for killing. They have no use as defense if they can’t kill. They’re not shields. You also can’t hammer a nail with a gun, or cut a steak with a gun.
I can’t think of many examples. Maybe electric chairs and guillotines.
You’ve never heard of guns?

Ah yes, I forgot that all pistols have a “wound only” setting.
Was tornado cash made for laundering money?
My point is that gun manufacturers will say they make their products for defense, not killing. Knife manufacturers, same. Hammer manufacturers, same.
There’s very few products which everyone can objectively say are designed for killing.

You can sport shoot with them, you can hunt for food with them, and every military uses them…for mainly defense.
How does hunting not involve killing?
How does such military defense not involve the act or threat of killing?
This is like saying veterinarians are killers with their tools because they euthanize animals…
Just having arms is a deterant, yes firearms are designed to destroy, they’re also designed as a defensive tool.
You clearly ignored sports shooting which is an actual sport, even an event in the Olympics.
