I like this turn of phrase
A gun is a joy of engineering. It is a nifty machine that throws a rock in a straight line. It is classically civilized.
It's an interesting (albeit a bit morbid) article that talks about the difference between knife and gun fights. It's actually a good read to understand why personally I think crimes committed with a knife are worse than those with a firearm.
With the knife, it's personal.
