> > I don't fear drugs or guns. I fear the people who abuse them. Drugs and guns are mere inanimate objects by themselves. They are lifesavers in the hands of the wise. They are killers only in the the hands of a fool.

> Do you think that everyone is either "wise" or "a fool?"No. It isn't that simple obviously. I was just trying to make a point that it's the person handling the thing that's dangerous or not, not the object by itself. And that drugs and guns have benefits as well as dangers, depending on who uses them. Any blame for misuse belongs to the person, not the tool used.
