You can only destroy the guns of law-abiding zitizens who have theirs registered. That leaves criminals still armed.airshocker

A big pile a metal would build up next to a big pile of gunpowder. Eventually, the piles would get so large and unstable that one of the gun scraps would fall and light up the gunpowder, blowing up the Earth. Do you want to kill us all?

If you disagree then by all means make your case. I'll shoot it down(pun intended) just like I have every other time you've disagreed with me on this topic.

The world wouldn't be any more peaceful.

We have other weapons like knives, crossbows, bows and arrows, etc. We would use those instead, like we did centuries ago.

Violence existed before guns did.

Why would war be more rare? History seems to disagree that war would happen less often simply because weapons are different.

I just assume people would be less willing to all of a sudden go to war if it is going to be so much more up close and personal. There would be less excess deaths, thats for sure (assuming were going to destroy missiles and bombs as well)

There would be a brief period of 0 gun-related crimes, then people would start manufacturing guns again.

The third world may finally be able to form some decent governments as the balance of the political powers in those countries wouldn't be so crooked without firearms.

The outcome of destroying every single gun would be: 1. People would find other things to kill with 2. People would build more guns to replace the destroyed ones.

So.. we need guns to protect us from swords :| what if their were no swords.. and no nukes.. and no knives.. and no bows and arrows..

If we dont need to defend ourselves from a weapon? we wouldnt need weapons.. therefor weapons exsist to defend from other weapons. WHAT IF THERE WAS NO WEAPONS D:

would every country stop flexing there military and get along?

lukeyAUS

What if, what if, what if. Seriously, if there were no real weapons than people would still make them out of sticks or beat each other with their fists.

Kay, so what if their were no sticks :| and its not like an army would invade a country to have a massive brawl.. no one would have the advantage so no war would even commence. I am correct.

No sticks? As long as there are trees there will be sticks. C'mon man, what are you gonna ask next "what if there were no rocks"?

What if the world was made out of playdough and all the people were made out of rubber? Then I guess the only violence would be throwing playdough at each other and watching it stick or bounce. lol

Honestly, wheres the down-side of destroying firearms.. they only exsist to protect us from other people with firearms. so if they didnt have a gun.. and i didnt have a gun.. would the world be peaceful? or would everyone be getting stabbed o.O

lukeyAUS

firearms don't only exist to protect us from other people with firearms. Firearms have many purposes other than self-defence against gun-wielding threats. Firearms are used in hunting, and some people shoot guns at a shooting range just for fun. Also guns are not only used to defend against other people, they are used to defend against animals such as wolves and bears that may attack people.

If we didnt have any guns to kill each other with then we would just go back to using swords, clubs and arrows. its in our nature to destroy ourselves. the weapons just change over time. War never changes, arms change. Nothing would change. Except battlefield medicine (because removing an arrow is alot harder than removing a bullet, depending on the arrowhead)

No it wouldn't be peaceful since most of mankind is and sadly will always be violent in my opinion. So if you destroyed all the guns mankind would just come up with some other way to kill each other.

It's not really the guns that are violent it's just certain people that are violent so destroying all the guns wouldn't do much.
