    The “gun problem” is really an issue with shit like social services and safety nets, not guns per se.

    If you talk to a criminal defense attorney and ask what the gov’t could do that would see the biggest drop in gun crime, most of them will answer without hesitation: end the war on drugs. If you decriminalize and legalize drugs, you end fights over money and territory in a single fell swoop, because you don’t see convenience stores shooting each other up, do you?
