One idea I have is completely overhauling how we approach crime like giving criminals a reason to take the way out of crime.

    That’s what I said short term, I do thunk that an armed workforce would be a great boon but first of all the cost of weapons does block considerably the access of the workforce and what I see is not weapons going to the worker is the regular citizen becoming a parallel army in the reserve, with the current culture of the USA I think better gun control would save many lives, there is an argument to be made that once it gets restricted it wouldnt turn back and that I can see but right now with the popular revolution a seemingly far into the horizon it might not be a bad move to restrict weapons

      I think the issue is it turning back will be near impossible. We would shoot ourselves in the future, in the foot over this and I don’t think that’s a good tradeoff
