Here’s an interesting article wherein Mikhail Kalashnikov complains about the uses his weapon has been put too.
“I didn’t put it in the hands of bandits and terrorists,” the rifle’s elderly inventor, Mikhail Kalashnikov, mused in a recent interview with The Associated Press. “It’s not my fault that it has mushroomed uncontrollably across the globe. Can I be blamed that they consider it the most reliable weapon?”
Sure, you can be blamed. That doesn’t mean people are right, but you can be blamed. People will always gravitate to the most efficient tools they can find for any job. Including killing other people or defending themselves from those who would kill them.
