That's because a hundred or more years ago they a) fought duels in 
public, b) didn't have a lot of rules about when it was and wasn't 
justified to shoot someone, and c) you didn't have whole organizations 
dedicated to BS like, "Guns don't kill people, people do!", which, imho, 
makes about as much sense as saying, "cars without working brakes don't 
kill people, the people that drive them do.", oh.. and the crazy idea 
that guns represent someone *other* than a very clear, specific, and 
intentional, way to kill things.
