> we shouldn't ban tools
When I see the old BuT FrEe SpEeCH argument repurposed to impinge civil rights I start warming to the idea of banning tools.
Alternately "Chemical weapons don't kill people, people with chemical weapons kill people"
Not really, its like banning chemistry sets cause they may be used to create chemical weapons.
Not sure the comparison works when it does all the work for you
I've had very little success mumbling "you are an expert chemist..." to test tubes and raw materials.
