That’s the point. A gun’s purpose is to kill.
And I was thinking of the victim being an animal that needs to be euthanized or something.

Eh… That’s still a bad idea, especially in a society like the US, where guns are very normalized not for killing in many places. Requiring death as an entry fee would just be normalizing their use for killing. It wouldn’t teach any sensible person something they don’t a ready know except now killing is expected and normalized for gun owners…

Cynically, I think this has already happened. That horse has bolted.
Which is your say, I do agree with your argument, I just think it’s already too late to argue it.

Oh trust me, humans can get A LOT worse than now. If you think we’re desensitized to violence, just wait until the real civil war kicks off. The Republicans will make you pine for the days where school shootings were the most deplorable form of daily violence…
Just look at Israel, gleefully murdering children jist trying to grab fucking food.
