A Vision for a Compassionate World Without Weapons
Written on
Chapter 1: A World Without Firearms
Imagine a world where firearms have been completely eradicated. If I held the highest office globally, I would enact an unchangeable law: “From this moment forward, all firearms are prohibited on Earth, and any conflicting laws are nullified.” This statement would be straightforward and universally translatable, leaving no room for debate.
In every corner of the globe, individuals possessing firearms would be encouraged to surrender them voluntarily at designated collection sites in cities worldwide within just six days. Following this period, large vehicles equipped with powerful electromagnets would traverse land, air, and sea, seeking out hidden firearms — from concealed revolvers to camouflaged rifles and everything in between.
The materials collected would be repurposed: metals melted down to create playground equipment like swings, seesaws, and slides for children, while the remains of destroyed weapons would transform into park benches for everyone to enjoy. Even the wood from gun handles would become notebooks and books for students globally.
In the halls of government, missiles and atomic weaponry would face complete destruction. The arms industry would shut down, redirecting its workforce to fireworks production — the sole future use for gunpowder.
Chapter 2: Healing the Human Spirit
With weapons no longer in existence, the focus would shift to disarming our souls. No longer would people waste their precious time on conflict. Instead of aggression, we would foster cooperation, teaching children in schools the importance of helping others rather than competing.
In businesses, the goal would change to uplifting individuals off the streets rather than maximizing profits. Politicians would forgo their salaries for the community's benefit. Our society would unite, striving for harmony.
From that point onward, acts of violence would become rare anomalies, not everyday events. No one would resort to raising their voice or hand in anger. If someone, in a moment of foolishness, sought to engage in conflict, they would have to resort to primitive means like sticks and stones, ultimately feeling shame for squandering their lives on trivial disputes.
Gradually, through consistent kindness and goodwill, we would come to realize that if we loved one another more deeply, the distinctions between "good" and "bad" would vanish. There would be no need for weapons, as everyone would be engaged in the beautiful exchange of love.
I envision a world like this. However, as I am not the global leader and likely never will be, I can only hope for a future where love prevails over hostility.
