I want to add that I am not sure yet what my position on this is. But I think your analogy is not correct - and please feel free to correct me if I am wrong!

Imagine the following scenario: Manufacturer's sell weapons cabinets to people. Only weapons cabinets are not hidden in your home, instead they are put out on the street. And now comes the dangerous part: These weapon's cabinets do not lock. Because the manufacturer decided that locks are not necessary. If someone comes along, should he just ignore this or should he make the weapons unusable? Because that is what these devices will be used as: weapons.
