I get the analogy, but guns are typically purposed for lethality. Software is not typically purposed for piracy. Maybe "trying to hit someone with your car"?

It's a perfect analogy because it is so extreme. The powers that be have already accepted that way of thinking (because guns are not illegal) and it's therefore even less of a stretch to apply the same concept to software tools.
