Weapons for Peace
Contest Directions:  According to the report published on Tuesday, 90 out of 100 U.S. citizens own guns, which by far exceeds the fraction of the gun owners in other countries. Surprisingly with a big gap, the second and third places on the list are occupied by India and China, with respectively 4 and 3 firearm owners per 100 people. Over 8 million new guns are produced in the world each year, and 4.5 million of them are purchased in the United States.
The report suggests that the United States population is over armed. In this contest, let's show how any weapons can be used in non-military, peaceful purposes - show alternative use of existing weapons, or re-design weapons by changing their parts or combining them with other objects or appliances so that they could be used for domestic needs, architecture, or other peaceful purposes.
