There's no such thing as "offense is a good defense". Offense is offense, and defense is defense. Guns are offensive weapons. Kevlar is defensive.
Guns are tools in a vague sense, but calling them tools suggests you're equating them with other things generally described as tools which is using deceptive language to mask the violent nature of guns. I don't see many people killed by rakes, hoes, or phillips screwdrivers, so it's dishonest to call guns tools. Guns, specifically, are weapons. They are designed to have a primary function of doing harm. I don't know of anyone who uses guns to clean leaves or fix a broken dishwasher.
