How To Solve Violence In The US? Remove Democrat Run Cities And Bring Back Asylums

Not my kid. I have given her permission to use any and all means available to defend herself when I'm not around.

And yes, the natural right of self-defense surely does convey the ownership of a purposeful tool kit. Explosives and bombs are not included because they are indiscriminate.

No, if you have a gun, the right to self defense allows you to use it. It doesn't convey a right to own that weapon.
I could defend myself with a tank. Do I have a right to a tank? I could use a SAM, a right to a SAM?

NOPE.

You give permission for your kid to do this, that doesn't mean the government recognizes adult rights for kids.

A tank is also indiscriminate. One shot from a tank will destroy indiscriminately, both property and lives.

A gun, properly used, is a precise tool that can be used to target a single individual offender.

big difference.

A tank "properly used" will not be "indiscriminate". Tanks have many ways of killing or protecting people. You can protect yourself just by being IN THE TANK. You don't need to shoot anything.

Go with the Singapore method. Institute caning. Increased strikes for president offenders.

It won’t kill indiscriminately. It’s a very precision weapon system.
 
That is only a subset of a greater issue. Crime is primarily social and socio-economical. It has become a major social issue across the West. Listen and read the posters on here, all stripes and pursuassions share one commonality...anger. People are simply more angry today. Cruel, insensitive and uncaring. People are less free and more angry. There may be multiple such correlations that illiustrate the extent of the problem.
It's a moral failure. Morality is absent from the public discourse and is relegated to the dustbin of societal history. Moral people have always been scoffed at but now they are anathema.

You really want caning as a form of punishment in the US. What is wrong with you?

One of the most common strategies used by the political left to attack 2nd Amendment supporters is to ramp up the anti-gun hype every time a crime involving a gun is committed. They don’t care much about the tragedy itself, they only care about how they can use it for political gain. However, it’s very important to understand that this is not only about removing gun rights for leftists – It’s also about creating a false association in the public consciousness that guns = crime.
That is to say, they want to condition people to believe that once guns are gone, crime and murder will be gone also. But, firearms have been an integral part of American society for hundreds of years, and gun ownership has been present through times of relative peace as well as times of increased violence.
In the case of countries like the UK with incredibly strict gun laws, muggings, rape and homicides have been rising with knife attacks in particular increasing by 80%. While it is technically more difficult to murder a person with a knife, it’s also a lot easier for larger, stronger assailants and gangs to succeed in harming people when those people have no equalizer. Disarmament makes life EASIER for criminals, not harder.
So, if guns are not the catalyst for rising violence, then what is? In reality, the very people who want guns taken from the hands of law abiding Americans are the same people largely responsible for the spike in homicide rates. Imagine that…
In the US, violent crimes and murders are exponentially higher in Democrat run cities, many of them with increased gun control measures. In fact, of the top 30 most violent cities in the US, 27 of them are Democrat controlled. Wherever leftists dominate politically, violence, theft, rape and murder are sure to follow. Anti-gun proponents often try to cite high homicide numbers in certain conservative states like Texas, but the majority of those crimes are actually committed in cities run by leftists.
The truth is, blue cities are dragging red states and the rest of the country down. According to the statistics, in theory, if the public was to replace all Democrat city politicians with conservative leadership murder rates would immediately plunge across the US by virtue of policy.

Well, it’s not necessarily an economic problem as many progressive might suggest. The country was hitting peak prosperity in the 1920s and murder rates were still sky high. On the opposite end, the system was still in depression turmoil in the 1930s to 1940s, but homicide rates plunged. So, what caused violent crime to fall in that era?
The only factor that seems to coincide with this period of relative peace is the sudden increase in psychiatric incarceration from around the 1930s onward.
~Snip~
To be sure, in the past there were some terrible practices involving mental health establishments and it doesn’t do anyone any good to repeat those mistakes. In the early days of psychiatry they caste a wide net that caught a lot of dangerous people, but they also locked up anyone with marginal mental problems as well. This led to abuses.
That said, it’s foolish to dismiss the numbers; asylums worked. They helped to reduce murders dramatically. At least 1% of the human population has psychopathic traits (including lack of empathy) and these people cause at least 30% of all crime in the US. At least 3% of the human population exhibits psychotic tendencies, which means they are prone to abrupt violence without treatment. Something has to be done to address the mentally unstable in our nation. Their odds of recidivism are extremely high, and they will keep committing the same crimes over and over again until they are stopped.
This is the elephant in the room that the political left doesn’t want to talk about. They try to hide it with social justice platitudes and feel-good welfare programs, but these things are clearly useless. Separating dangerous and insane people from the rest of the population is the only sure method for saving lives in the long run and keeping civilization intact.
The solution is simple and two-fold: Get rid of leftist leaders in major cities that set violent repeat offenders free, and bring back mental health facilities to lock up the crazies if necessary. This is the ONLY WAY to stop the avalanche of violent crime that awaits Americans as the next few years unfold.

Commentary:
The current push by the Maoist/Marxist Democrat Deep State Progressive cabal is the greatest act of seditions since the Confederacy started the Civil War.
Maoist/Marxist "Progressives" genuinely believe that human Biology was written in pencil, and they can just change or erase any points that are inconvenient with respect to their agendas.
"Progressives" also believed that allowing an unbalanced, extremist cult to take over our educational(?) system was a great idea.
China has applied the Opium Wars history to attack America in partnership with Mexican Narco Cartels to pour drugs into America to those on the edge or totally needing mental health This has severely compromised the homeless and mentally challenged pummeled by constant brainwashing, severe economic hardship and a dozen other reasons.
Those practicing "Political Correctness" and call it "tolerance", even though the PCs themselves are the most narrow-minded, racist and intolerant people in our society.
I’ve said before that the Maoist/Marxist Democrat left has celebrated mental illness for decades, long before this trans crap became a political wedge.
PC Progressive Liberalism is in itself a mental illness. Every policy position they have exposes it.
Republican lead cities have crime and violence also.

Aside from your hyper-partisan rant, I agree.

whatever you think is the greater issue, or the social and socio-economic problems,

Crime must be dealt with by a strong police force and justice system.

We are not simply more angry, we have good reasons to be angry when we see and live the Democratic party destroying our lives.
So, excuse making for your violence.
 
A machine gun is not an easy thing to employ. It takes a lot of training.

It also requires a special license issued by the ATF, thanks to FDR and Democrats way back in 1934.
