Bows in Africa? Ahaha good one.
Do they also run around in loin clothes hollering? ๐
They carry knifes because of the multiple use, not to stab the enemy, that's why they have guns.
None of the weapons you mentioned has an equal bodycount to a mass shooting.

That wasn't the point they are all weapons of war was the point. VBIEDs most certainly rack up a large body count, so do chemicals etc.
I get it we won't agree on this and that's okay. I agree with you on about 90% of the other things you mention on here.
Dogs are weapons of war, by your thesis.
Guns have one explicit purpose, and that's to kill.
When a 16 year old was found last weekend with a cache of guns that he bought, and was ready to mass shoot his school, that's not comparable to anything.
But it's a societal and cultural thing too. IEDs in schools could also happen like the Butler assassination attempt also had 'a truck filled with explosives in the parking lot'
So it's more a violent society rather than what weapon is used to carry out that endeavour.
Actually good point German shepherds, malinois, hell even pit bulls have been used
Good point about the societal differences too
