No poll - no voting. Just make a lotta noise.
I would avoid the "imagine a world without guns" because the image doesn't convey to me "strong vs. weak." In fact, it conveys "without guns, everyone will be friendly and tradin' fist-bumps."
I realize the approach is intentional, but it takes too much work to put the irony together for a "sight-bite" type image.
The thing with the "Imagine a World Without Guns" poster is that it has to look non-threatening at first glance.
The thing with the "Imagine a World Without Guns" poster is that it has to look non-threatening at first glance. If you show an African machete killing spree, then it doesn't capture the anti's attention like a more docile, but still thought-provoking image like the one Oleg used.
Now, I wouldn't have used the image Oleg used, either, but it fits better with the goal of the image than something blatantly pro-gun.
