Not from an emotional standpoint. Humans are generally adverse to killing. It’s why most have to be conditioned or put in extreme circumstances to kill another human being.

Technologically, on the other hand, it is scary easy. This week an airliner crashed in the Alps. Rare and tragic, but not unheard of in this day and age. Now we learn that the co-pilot most likely deliberately crashed the plane. 

As I write this, there has been no definitive reason for the co-pilot’s actions. 

Here’s the issue. We are being constantly told that something must be banned because it might be misused by someone. Just as long as that something is not routinely used by those that wished it banned. Why? Because when you use something routinely, you understand that an inanimate object lacks agency. It can’t do something without human direction or manipulation. As long as there are evil humans, they will use whatever means are available to accomplish their ends. It could be a gun, gasoline, glass bottle, or airplane. 

The object doesn’t matter. The action matters.
