Guns don’t kill people. People kill people.
Guns – smaller or bigger, they are deadly weapons, which most of the time are used for killing innocent people.
They are created for two purposes. The first is to defend yourself from an enemy that wants to hurt you. The second is to kill an innocent person, whether out of “fun”, or by order.
Whether the gun will be used for protection or killing it is up to the person who uses the gun. Guns, unfortunately, cannot decide upon their use. They are just “victims” whose role is merciless.
The hired guns are just hired and nothing more. They don’t know why they are hired, or who hired them. Pretty much it is the same with the gunman. They are hired, as the gun.
And this book actually explores that fact – that the hired guns are just hired.
