I call BS. You'd not part with your 12GA for pew,pew.Only if it goes "pew pew"
I'd give my left nut for that device.
I would. Limits a lot of liability regarding missed shots as well as legal problems.
I'll keep my guns thank-you. For their mechanical beauty.
2nd... Not sure I'd want this new type of device used on me by a criminal.
3rd... This device is not a deterrent, potential death by firearm is.
4th... I'm sure a rapist would love this device... to use on their intended victims.
It is never as simple as it appears now is it?
+1Exactly what I was thinking. This device would be abused. Could you imagine going to a gas station and a person using it on the attendant to rob the store? Or going into a bank and shoot everyone inside with this device to get all of the money.
People will continue to break the law/do immoral things. The threat of deadly force being used against them is the biggest deterrent in my opinion. All living creatures have the desire and will to live. Anything that threatens that is the ultimate deterrent from a behavior.
So to answer your question, no I would not give up possessing guns for this device.
Suppose you remove all guns for this magical device, then sure. But robbers are more often repeat offenders and nothing stops future crimes better than a few bullets to the head.

Amen.I'd carry that for defense, but I wouldn't give up guns for target shooting, or hunting. Also, a stun gun isn't that useful for a revolution which is one reason we have a second amendment.

This is a theoretical question stolen from another forum that I think is very interesting.
A technological device has been created. This device is 100% reliable. It is much less expensive than a gun and does not need to be maintained like a gun does. It aims more accurately than a gun and 'shoots' faster than a gun. When the target is hit, they are paralyzed for a period of time. This period of time is plenty long to bring in police officers or whomever else needed. Let's say 4 hours, just to throw a number on it. The device will NOT kill anyone.
