Answer 1

you ask many questions here. I will try to explain my answer in all them. But that means while ot write it all and very very long answer. *takes a deep breath* Here we go

The first q you asked is this: Are weopons good or bad?
They are bad. I dont like the idea weapons to any one. I dont see the need for them at all. Toys or other wise.

The Next q you ask: Why do people need weapons? (Or, do we need weapons?)

We really dont need them at all. If we cnat settle the disagreement verablly. Then jsut avoid that perosn. If the perosn causes trouble still to you. Then get the police involed. I know they have guns but the thing is. They have bean bag guns ect. Those i dont care about. Th reason is cuz. theydont harm the operosn they jsut knock them out and get a bad person off the streets. If we had more"bad" people off teh streets we wouldnt ahve to worry about weopons at all.

The nbext q you asked is this: Do you like any kinds of weapons?
Not really. I can put up with the bean bag gun and the stun gun. for police only. To get "bad" guys attition taht is all.

The next q you asked is this:. Would you be able to kill a person?

I dont like and thrive on volence as som people do. I dont see a need in it. Thus dont like. In fact i dont like how the ajils are run any ways. I think we should put all "bad" guys on liek 4 islands. One for muders, rapers, ect. Then only feed them one a month and Not have enough nd let them Either starve to deth or beat them selves wit the rocks for the food.

The next q is this you ask: Would you buy your child a toy gun?
NEVER. I wouldnt even let my children play with them at a friend house. I dont see the need. May the only thing i will let them play with is a water gun (cuzi like them my self* But that is the only thing i would.

Now my over all veiw. I dont mind "certain" weaopons. Like i said bean bag gun,stun gun (both for police only). Water guns maybe for the kid after a certain age. I dont mind pepper spray for (defence ONLY) but if oyu know how to use nd are trianed by the police. I dontmind shot guns for hunter only. Not the ones that shot out of spot. That is really the only need fora weapon i see at all. Plus If more peopel bow hunt. We can get read the use of guns :)

Anyway, I am sorry if i orrfended any one. I hope this helped.

Answer 2

1. Why do people need weapons? (Or, do we need weapons?)

People need weapons if they live in a dangerous area. The danger could be either from animals or other people.

2. Do you like any kinds of weapons?

Yes, I like swords, knives, bows and rifles. I'm not overly fond of hanguns, but I still find them interesting, at least in design.

3. Would you be able to kill a person?

In some situations, yes. In reality, I don't know. I don't think you'll find anybody eager to find out.

4. Would you buy your child a toy gun?

No. However, I might buy my child an air rifle (some of which I don't consider a toy).

5. Are weapons good or bad?

Weapons are good. People can be bad.

Answer 3

1) People dont "need" weapons in an idealistic sense. We need them in a real world as they serve as tools, whether for defense or for enforcement. I am not an advocate for every person should carry a weapon, but if you consider martial arts, we as people, can be weapons.
2) Yes, but which I wont disclose.
3) Yes, we all would if in the right circumstance. Intentional and unintentional.
4) Yes. There is nothing wrong with a child playing with a toy. It is more important to teach the child right from wrong.
5) Weapons are both. Circumstances dictate which one qualifies.

Answer 4

1. We do need to protect ourselves from bad people from doing harm. Also, I am assuming you mean guns in particaluar they are a fun sport as well.
2. Only for sport.
3. I try not to think about it. I hope I never half to make that choice.
4. Yes. I had them as a child as did my brother and our father. Bad or neglectful parenting is more dangerous than a child palying with a toy.
5. Weapons are inanimate objects. It is the moral intent of the possesor that makes them bad.

Answer 5

Weapons are inannimate objects -- they are neither good nor bad. People are good and bad.

1. Weapons protect us from criminals (both in and out of government).
2. Sure, those that can accomplish #1.
3. Yes, if necessary.
4. Probably not until ready to understand the seriousness of the use of weapons.
5. Already answered.

Answer 6

well the first battles where fought with sticks and stones. Evil people will all ways live among us, so yes weapons are good. They are necessary for a free world to stay free, and to protect ones home. The person that is not willing to kill an intruder is a victim, a person that does not carry a legal concealed weapon is a subject.

Answer 7

1) if regular people didn't have weapons.. then only criminals woudl have them. that would be real bad.
2) I like all kinds of weapons. I'm in the Army
3) yes
4) yes and a real one when they are old enough to be properly trained to shoot targets then hunt if he or she wanted to.
5) not good or bad. Weapons are a tool. Like any tool, if used properly they are good, If not... bad.

Is a car good or bad? Hit by a drunk? bad. Drives you to the hospital after getting hit by a drunk? good. Just a tool.

Answer 8

1. To protect oneself or one's country.
2. Not really. They're just not my bag.
3. Probably not...I hope I'm never in a situation where I'd have to find out!
4. I don't see why not.
5. Neither. In the right hands, they're good. In the wrong hands, they're bad.

Answer 9

1: To protect themselves and their countrys
2: Yes.
3: If I got a clean shot on Usama Bin Ladin, Yes.
4: No, if it ca be misstaken for a real weopon.
5: Neither. Its the shooter that decides that.
