Re: Why Can't We Return To How Peaceful The World Was Before Guns?

Eliminating the tools with which people hurt each other is not going to solve the problem. You need to eliminate hate to do that. And good luck with that. Humans are intelligent creatures. We can find / make tools to do whatever we want to do.

I always laugh when I see signs that say "no weapons allowed". If we define a "weapon" as anything that is not part of your body which could be used to inflict harm, then obeying that sign would mean stripping naked, which is almost always against the law. So the sign is instructing people to commit a crime. A broader, and no doubt more accurate, definition of "weapon" would require self-mutilation in order to comply with such a sign.
