Read a random definition: Quasi-legislative

A quick definition of weapon:

A weapon is something that is used to hurt or kill someone. It can be a hidden weapon that you can't see, or something that can cause serious harm. A deadly weapon is something that can cause death, and a weapon of mass destruction is something that can hurt a lot of people at once, like a bomb.

A more thorough explanation:

A weapon is an object or device that is used or designed to be used to harm or kill someone. It can be a physical object like a gun or a knife, or a substance like poison or a chemical agent.

  • Concealed weapon: A weapon that is carried by a person but is not visible to others.
  • Dangerous weapon: An object or device that is capable of causing serious bodily injury due to the way it is used.
  • Deadly weapon: Any firearm or other device, instrument, material, or substance that is likely to cause death or serious physical injury.
  • Deadly weapon per se: A weapon that is deadly in and of itself or would ordinarily result in death by its use.
  • Lethal weapon: Another term for deadly weapon.
  • Weapon of mass destruction: A weapon that is intended to kill human beings on a massive scale, without discriminating between combatants and noncombatants. Examples include nuclear weapons and chemical weapons.

For example, a gun is a deadly weapon because it is designed to fire bullets that can cause serious injury or death. A knife is also a deadly weapon because it can be used to stab or slash someone. Poison is a dangerous weapon because it can cause serious harm if ingested or inhaled. A nuclear bomb is a weapon of mass destruction because it is designed to kill large numbers of people indiscriminately.
