Sure it could.

It's not likely (though true world peace isn't likely in itself), but it's POSSIBLE.

You can't hug people with nuclear arms!

The same holds true for non-violent crimes.

If we're soooo damned soft on crime, why does the US have the highest incarceration rate in the world? According to the linked article, the US has only 5% of the world's population, but almost 25% of the world's prisoners. Yeah, that's REAL soft on crime.

There are some parts of the world where drinking alcohol is a crime. I enjoy a beer or 2 every now and then. What do I do when the "superhero" from a "dry" country shows up and demands I stop drinking...or else? Hell, there are places where **** victims are stoned to death, for being "adulterers" for "letting" themselves get *****. Thank $deity that a Somalian "superhero" can now kill...er, I mean "bring justice to"...**** victims...er, I mean "adulterous criminals"...around the world.

Hooray for juvenile revenge fantasies masquerading as strong moral convictions and being "tough on crime".
Best post yet.

No, but you can render them incapable of harming anyone else ever again, as well as turn the sand around them into decorative glass! Pretty! Sparkly!

Jokes are less funny when people make semi-serious responses to them.

The decorative glass would be the best part.
