Just wondering. Sometimes guns can be good, but then again giving guns to those random terrorists group in Iraq is bad. So generally is it good or bad?
A gun is just an object that does nothing unless someone makes it do something. It is not so much if the gun is bad, but is the person using the gun bad. Otherwise I like guns and have a few. Trap shooting is fun :]

A gun cannot be bad or good. You see, it's all about the intentions that those guns are used for. It I were to pick up a hockey stick and start attacking people with it. Would that render the hockey stick 'bad'? Therefor, he who is using the gun and how they are using it, is what the gun in turn is.
Guns are objects made by humans to do certain things, just like blades and swords etc. They all serve a purpose. You cannot categorize them as bad or good.
Guns are implements meant solely to kill. But so are all ranged weapons in human history. They are merely objects. If I wanted to kill you and I didn't have a gun, I would grab another object; say a baseball bat. Only it is far more painful. Bashing your brains in is quite a bit more painful than blowing them out.
the concepts of good and evil cannot be clearly defined, as they entail one another, and so neither can be considered a higher value
(I dont know who said it first) I dont beleive that they are bad or evil, i just think that people some times use them for the wrong things, eg murder and theft. I rather think that guns are good because the provide Protection, food, and entertainment. They also help to keep down most wild populations. Now given we could do all of those with other weapons, guns are better for it and therefor in my opinion good.
