But nobody buys a car SPECIFICALLY to be able to kill someone. Car accidents and deaths are an unintended result of their use for another completely different purpose. Let's face up to reality. The large percentage of handguns in America are bought for the sole purpose of killing someone (should the owner decide that is necessary for whatever reason). They honestly have no other purpose. Don't bring up the 'sporting use' issue, either. That's like saying that cars are bought to race... Sure, you CAN do that with a car (although it's dangerous), but it's not the overwhelming PRIMARY reason people buy cars.
And people don't buy handguns because they are determined to get a perfect '10' in the bullseye at a target shoot
If that was the case, they could leave them at the range...
