There are no dangerous weapons, just dangerous people

Hell, yeah, I want a death ray. But guns will do until then.

But are there some technologies we shouldn’t have? Maybe. But guns are far from that.

    Technology is the natural inheritance of anything that can formulate hypotheses, initial assumptions, results, and conclusions.

    Fuck it. Bring it.

    In the words of the ancient Asian philosopher:

    “We’ll see…”

    Technologies we shouldn’t have?
    Two points:
    1) One of the largest genocides of recent years was accomplished primarily with farm tools and machetes. High tech is not necessary to kill lots of people.
    2) Genii, meet the guy holding the bottle. Once the bottle is open, there is no way to stuff that powerful technology back into the bottle…. Unless you run a totalitarian or feudal society, where the Soviets/Chicoms/Khmer Rouge or the 16th century Japanese Shogunate can disarm an entire populace of modern weapons, primarily through killing all who oppose that idea. How hard is it to use modern tech, even if your knolwedge level falls between a tribal illiterate raising subsistence crops and a student? Ask the guys using the Stinger missiles against Soviet helicopters, the Japanese cultists making sarin gas, or the college sophomore I once stopped from inadvertently making nickel carbonyl.

    “Outlawing” technology only makes outlaws of those who still want to use it. Which is why in the next 4 years Iran will probably provoke a nuclear crisis in the Mideast.

    If the technology exists, it will spread. That international treaty banning the spread of nuclear weapons worked real well, didn’t it?

    How do you know we do not have them Unc????

    For the Younger readers out there who probably didn’t get taught this in “Social Studies,” recall that the first Nukes were made long before even the Transistor was Invented, using Vacuum Tubes.

    For what a Vacuum Tube is, well that will be for the Student to Research. ; )

    My home state has a mandatory 3-day waiting period for death rays. I didn’t think I would still be angry in 3 days so I bought a Glock instead.

  7. Kristophr Says:

    If you can’t shoot it without endangering everyone within miles, then you should not be carrying one that is assembled and ready to use.

    So the list would be:

    Nukes
    Biological Weapons
    Nerve Gas and other similar chemical weapons.

    Merely having one of these is exactly the equivalent of pointing a loaded rifle at everyone who passes your house … your neighbors would be entirely justified to take you down and sort your shit out for you.

    I honestly don’t think civilians should have access to the Eludium P36 Explosive Space Modulator. And I would ask that the Acme Company would internally monitor the amount of TNT, dynamite, and rocket-powered roller skates that it ships to the Southwest US.

  9. Brad Says:

    Let us also recognize that the American civilian weapon technology of center-fire self-loading rifles with detachable magazines is now more than 100 years old.
