Maybe we should pass laws against stealing and murder. When those work

Yeah, that ought to fix EVERYTHING!

Or, since laws clearly don't fix everything, we may as well not have any.

Or, more precisely, laws don't fix ANYTHING. A law MIGHT punish people
AFTER COMMISION OF A CRIME, but since the very first law it has been
abundantly clear that it didn't PREVENT any sort of behavior.

Prohibition prevented the ownership of alcoholic beverages, much the
same as people now seem bent on "preventing" ownership of certain
poorly defined guns. How did that work out? Haven't we learned
ANYTHING from history?

And, yes, constantly trying to judicially stick your finger in the
dike is a fools errand. Fewer laws would not be a bad thing.

Wow...you're a libertarian looney. Figures.
