The prevalence of weapons in society increases the likelihood of death or injury. ?

On average, everyone disagrees with significant nonconsensus between 41 voters.

Reasons To Disagree

People making choices increase the liklhood of death. Weapons are tools

The problem is more complex than a simple agree, disagree, neutral question. For starters: https://www.unodc.org/documents/gsh/pdfs/2014_GLOBAL_HOMICIDE_BOOK_web.pdf

Inanimate objects objects are not the reason for any form of violence as they are only tool of the person or weapon using them. Almost anything can be used as a tool to do harm to others and I am including spit wads, straight pins and paperclips in this.

Guns dont kill people, People Kill people If you take away guns they will use swords if you take away swords they'll use poison, Murder was happening way before modern weapons or laws

It's people who decide to pull the trigger, swing the blade, or poison someone.

All weapons are innocent, it's those who use them are to blame for any evil becoming.

Weapons are for one’s own protection and protection of others

Reasons To Agree

The question has no mention of any specific weapon type, therefore you cannot argue that ‘guns don’t kill people people kill people’. However, the prevalence, ease of access and lack of proper background checking certainly does not help the statistics of death using firearms. It has been proven in serveal countries that when certain laws are enforced (not making firearms illegal but making is harder to get them) the death rate involving firearms decrease immensely.
