We are experiencing a similar rise in crime in Canada even with our stricter gun control laws. Rather than blaming guns, progressives frequently blame systematic racism and mental disease. Regardless of the cause, “catch and release” alongside selective enforcement of the law is clearly not the solution. Prioritizing law-abiding citizens by increasing policing, implementing a “broken windows” approach to law enforcement, and being tough on violent offenders is the only option.

" It’s not “pro-black” for black children to get hit by stray bullets while walking to the underperforming schools that the same people control." That sums it up pretty well. Right after reading this, I listened to Ron Paul on US's forever wars, including Ukraine. He pondered wether the real goal is to not win them but to keep them going. Insert Poverty (they literally said 'war on poverty) and you see a system that has been created. The same type of people that brought us the war machine has just gone over to poverty and now the homeless industrial complex. The goal isn't to fix it because that would mean the end of money and power.
