We all know the classic adage:
The pen is mightier than the sword.
Yesterday, as I was just brooding (in fact, day-dreaming is a more accurate description 
), I hit upon a new adage which is more representative of the modern era. Here goes,
The keyboard is mightier than the AK-47.
Eeeks! I know it sucks, but I felt that I should share it with you guys. I guess ‘keyboard’ perfectly replaces ‘pen’, but I feel that there can be a better word to replace ’sword’. Any ideas?

@ Sukesh
Yes, I thought about that one. It was the first one that came into mind. But I reckoned that AK-47 makes more sense. Nukes are indeed dangerous but they are hardly used in everyday life.
@ OldSailor
Yep, that’s a good one.
