Combine them...
Urm, so we can copy upload, and instead of killing the originals, we give
'em AK47s, put 'em in a big fighting pit, and let 'em duke it out (there can
only be one). The last remaining original becomes the Great Pet of the
uploads.
Is that what you mean?
Urrr, actually, there should probably be a free market for guns & other
weapons, with no licensing or restrictions, so that market forces can
optimise the efficiency of the mega-fight?
Is that more on target?
