Martial Law on all the obvious known gangs out there, bring in the military and start exterminating members. No doubt that most guns being used in crimes are stolen and from straw sales, and I wonder how many actually get reported. What do criminals really have to worry about, if they don't get killed they will end up in prison with 3 hots and a cot and joining a gang there. If a prison/state has death row......kill the mother fuckers in a very timely manner, then say "NEXT". Of course allow every person the choice to carry, even the playing field and in no time the game will be pretty much over. There honestly wasn't the violence in the old West like many would believe, and there was no shortage of guns. Of course now we are overrun by criminals, thugs, gangs, etc.....because they are in charge. When they begin to fear the armed citizen, the tables will turn. I am all for vigilante style justice as well, we need some highly trained and "very well armed" bad asses, with the best instruments of death and stealth weaponry and gear out hunting the bad guys. Can you just imagine if there were funded black ops type commandos going out and killing the scum of the Earth here in the good ole USA, and they were funded by our tax dollars? Now that would be money well spent, and oh how quickly shit could change. Give them a list of names and locations, and let them clean up the vermin. To hell with all the protection we waste on foreign soil, let our Nation's finest do more domestic missions. Put the fear of imminent death in the bad guys minds, let them know that there is no where to run and no where to hide.....the Batmen are watching.
