if you step outside the box of “normal” thinking you realize some laws were put into place to create problems that law makers could create more laws to “fix” a problem laws won’t fix. I read a story about a niehborhood in seatle filled with drug dealers gunfire and hookers… the answer given to citizens?? MORE “laws” to deal with the problem…. so certain people are already breaking multiple laws and the answer is more laws…. evil exists and politics is its mother… I live in one of the safest states in the Country and democrats in charge every fukkin year want to pass bloombergs wet dream “gun control”… pass laws to fix a nonexistent problem to further restrict citizens Freedom. to make lawmakers feel safer to pass more laws to restrict citizens more to exert more control over more people.

An example that showed up on the news a few days ago: in Boston, "food delivery drivers" are often scofflaws, double parking cars and zigzagging mopeds in and out of bike lanes and sidewalks.

The city's solution? Enforce existing traffic laws seems obvious, but no, they aren't interested in that. Instead, they created a new ordinance requiring delivery companies (Doordash etc.) to file reports with the city periodically about who they deliver for and how many. WTFO?

Mental health system - wasn’t that taken apart by the same ACLU types that are objecting to deporting illegal aliens now? I’ll stick with your strategy Miguel, although I usually have a warm, fuzzy feeling shopping at Bass Pro. Gotta think I’m not the only one carrying there too.

Criminals are breaking the laws, so we need more laws. Wait… what? Wouldn’t it be better to enforce the laws that are already on the books? Weren’t those laws promised to control criminals, if they were enacted? Was that a lie? How will any new criminal laws be effective if they are not enforced against criminals? Oh! I see. The law-abiding are made criminals by the new laws and they are easy to enforce the laws against. It’s all about citizen control, not criminal control. Power, not safety.
