Answer 1

It depends on how you want to define terms. Some people use guns for illegal purposes, to force their will on other people, to take things from other people by force, or to murder, however, it isn't because of the gun. People were doing those things thousands of years before the gun was invented. A better way to ask it might be, "What are some negative and positive things people use guns to do?"
