El Sitherino Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Not very, unless you're Superman. Or a really badass Uruk'hai. Then again I suppose Superman with an AK would be even faster than Superman with a crossbow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Then again I suppose Superman with an AK would be even faster than Superman with a crossbow....It all depends on whether he reversed the Earth's rotation and went back in time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 True, true. Also, he could be red-Superman, in which he'll pick the crossbow as means to cause Batman more pain. Seeing as he's a communist and all, and Batman is a capitalist pig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedi3112 Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 I'd say get rid of all guns. Why? Well, quite simply, swords are much more fun. Also using swords there is skill required, instead of just large quantities. As well as that it takes more courage to use a sword than it takes to use a gun. And swords being more stylish. So swords are the way to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDJOHNNYMIKE Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I was surprised reading this, I never checked it out cuz I thought it would be a hippie commune Swords are cool, but I vote every other thursday at precisely 5:00PM (depending on timezone) the entire world partakes in a 3 hour fight club, guns and swords will still fulfil the same roles they always have, but after beating the living crap out of a crowd of people many possible murderers will be satisfied and way too tuckered out to get off the coach and mow down a city square.

Emperor Devon Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 There would be no point. People would just go back to swords. It's either one level of technology or the other, and the end result wouldn't be that different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth InSidious Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Well, it would. There'd be a lot more carpet-cleaners, for one thing. I mean, there'd be so much more blood and guts everywhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleDog Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Destroying guns is a knee jerk reaction violence it solves nothing. This is what happens if you destroy all guns: gun>crossbow>bow>javalin>spear>pointy stick>big rock>smaller rock. You can't end violence by destroying weapons.

edlib Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Didn't the Simpsons already cover this subject in at least one of the Halloween episodes? They got rid of the all the weapons, and were promptly invaded by aliens using slingshots. They were saved when someone decided to fight back using a board with a nail in it. I think they did another one where they got rid of all the guns in town, and were immediately taken over by a band of zombie bandits that had guns. Leave it to the Simpsons to solve all the important debates for you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattleDog Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 You can say that? I don't remember that one. Destroying Guns would just cause a regression as we all agree, further a regression in tech might inspire everyone to go back to war; since by the time you get rid of guns nukes will be long gone. Here in the UK guns are banned, gun crime has gone up, sharply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth InSidious Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Actually, you can still own and fire a rifle, 'though you have to fire it on a range (obviously), and obtain a licence. You can also obtain a revolver, but you can't fire it at all, keep rounds etc etc etc ad nauseam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleDog Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Rifles are only .22 calibre, revolvers have to be of an oblsolete nature. I saw an article in The Times about the Olympic team trying to get the laws relaxed as at the momment they are training in Switzerland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
