Others are used for intimidation and many are just for show (especially old ones). My grandpa owns at least 100 guns, and I can attest to the fact he's never shot a human with one. Many weapons (like the cannons on an A-10) are actually used to cripple vehicles and buildings, whether there's a person in them or not.
Many of those weapons are also used to keep you safe against people who don't care that you don't like guns. Perhaps police shouldn't get to carry around weapons...since they're out to shoot people all the time. That way they can get gunned down by crack dealers and crazy people.
People in this thread appreciate the power and intimidation caused by this weapon; it doesn't mean we're going to grab minigun and start mowing people down. You're fine with using a computer composed and working off hundreds of chemicals (also used to kill people, with varying degrees of directness), but you can't appreciate the chemicals and metallurgy required to form a complex weapon (who's origins, as far back as you might want to go with gunpowder) return to basically non-violent means. Pffft.

You could paint a wall fairly quickly with the minigun in AvP. The smartgun was basically the better choice, though. 1/3 the rounds plus it tracks cloaked predators and aliens. I guess the TFC HWGuy has a minigun...sortof...but it's not all that great, either.
I suppose you'd need to go with a more modern game to get a 'better' minigun.
