You fell into your own trap: people are not killed by guns, people are killed by other people who use guns to kill. If nobody had guns, the murderers would just use other tools, such as knives, baseball bats, frying pans, rocks, poison, vehicles, etc. The world is full of potential murder weapons.
Again, the problem with murderers is that they kill without legal justification; the tool is irrelevant.
Exactly. Better tools just allow us to achieve our desired results more efficiently, and with less inherent skills.
