    Let’s say i hired someone to build a house for me.

    The house ostensibly looks fine and seems sturdy.

    I invite my friends over, and they come inside the house.

    I walk outside to move some trash and shut the door.

    Shutting the door causes the house to collapse, killing everyone inside.

    Am i responsible for my friends deaths? I did kill them by knocking down my house after all.

      Guns are subject to special handling rules because their intent is to kill people.

      Analogies here are red herring

      Guns are made to kill people and anyone whp handles huns is held to the highest standard of care on the personal level. This is not something you can contract away unless you are a regime whore of certain level like Alex
