    With the said Lightsabre?

    Would you become a Jedi? Lucas missed a trick, should activate sabre via the force. Save fraudulent use and acccidentally chopping a leg off.

    No because as soon as you had a lightsaber, the governments of the world would take you down and take it for themselves for research and military development. And don't say that if you had a lightsaber you would be able to fight them off because you wouldn't.

    lightsaber < guns, machine guns, snipers, tank weapons, rocket launchers, bombs etc etc.

    Sorry, I'd take the cute girl though, I actually need one of those.

    Those supposedly exist but if Luke's saber had been force-activated, Han Solo wouldn't have been able to cut open the tauntaun and stuff Luke in it annnnnd....the world would have never known princess leia in a metal bikini.

    that said I think I'd have to be lame and vote no on the poll.

    Your lack of faith is disturbing. And you underestimate the power of the dark side.

    he wouldnt be able to kill you, cuz you'd have a lightsaber.

    i wouldnt kill the girl, that would be fucked. i might make her french toast.

    one thing that always bothered me: if you dropped a lightsaber, would it just burn through the fucking ground and fall forever to the center of the earth and shit? I mean, nothing can stop it.

    This definitely needs to be taken into account. If upon receiving the lightsaber I acquired Jedi skills in order to use it as effectively as Darth Maul then hell yeah. Then i would be able to fight against the government forces and whatnot. I would also be able to lower the saber to my crotch area and every time a cute girl comes along switch it on and then I'd smile jokingly. We'd then have sex, obviously.

    Certainly, its a sword which will cut you if you brush it. You'd need to be a Jedi or a Ninja to use it well.
    Short-range weaponary is shite.

    I would be hunted down and kiled for the saber, and that's if I didn't already accidentally kill myself with the fucking thing, so no

    No, but if I saw the lightsaber up front first I might reconsider. If you added "and be able to fly" then there's a stronger case.

    Yeah, miles too dangerous. Thats why flame-throwers in WWII were quite rare...plus they'd explode when shot.

    My reasoning for why the weapon is shit for the average person:

    1. Every time you use the thing it lights up like an xmas tree, making stealth or suprise a non option and marking you out for sniping rather well.
    2. It's essentially a weightless blade which means its going to be a right bitch to handle well. and more likely than not you'll overpower the swing and slice your leg off.
    3. It can cut through anything, meaning if you parry a weapon rather than stopping the approaching blade or club all its going to do it cut it in half, and chances are the detached part is still going to be flying towards your face.
    4. Your reactions would be too slow to deflect even the most modest semi or fully automatic projectile weapon.
    5. Even if you had jedi reflexes, the lightsaber only worked against blaster shots. With projectile weapons all you'd likely do is slow it down a bit whilst also making it white hot and molten, thus ensuring rather than a bullet wound you instead cover your face in molten metal.

    So yeah. Shitty.

    I doubt they'd use projectile weapons if lightsabres were possible, mainly due to not having finite shots and lugging around ammo.

    Like Alien acid-blood, guess their blood-vessels are resistant.

    It took them quite a while to cut through some shielded doors in Episode 1.

    depends more on the context. If we know how to make lightsabers than no. If we don't....one life is nothing compared to the advances in technology having a light saber will bring. So with around 3.5 billion girls, i would kill her in seconds.
