The End of Killing Graphic Novel

What it Takes to be an Intellectual Olympian

Stuck in the Past & Differing Perspectives
I wholeheartedly believe we can reduce violence and killing in our world, but we are not doing everything we can to achieve that goal. That’s partly because the discussions we are having about public safety, violent crime, and gun ownership are stuck in the past.
Creating Non-Lethal Weapons for the Future

It will introduce you to the general concepts of non-lethal weapons, then walk through a first-principles design approach to building the non-lethal weapons that have the potential to make bullets obsolete in the not-too-distant future. Then I’ll discuss some of the risks that have to be evaluated when deciding to put them to use.

That's the question that is at the heart of the book, and my life's work.
