We have started the same program in Arizona. Confiscated guns are now required to be sold so that the proceeds can benefit the public.

I liked Heinlein a lot. But even Heinlein ended up becoming a Deist. I came to Jesus when I realized that even with my best efforts, I still needed forgiveness. I made mistakes. Everyone does.

It might be a better idea to create gun “set asides”, specifically for crime victims in need of a weapon. This would help insure they got a good, functional weapon, appropriate to their needs, and probably free ammunition as well, and training on request, along with range training.

There is a lot of common sense with this, as for long the FBI has compiled statistics about crime and victims, and discovered that some victims are “frequent flyers”, being victimized repeatedly, for assorted reasons. Many can’t seem to stop the cycle of victimization on their own.

As for “blood running in the streets,” as long as it’s the right blood...

I grew up devouring Heinlen (and Asimov and a host of others of the era) and loved his works. He got a little outre’ near the end, but even then he showed an understanding of where we were going as a society and I like to think his versions were the softer, gentler versions of what he knew we would end up with. Then again, maybe he turned more towards sexual freedoms as an antidote to old age - as an elderly gentleman friend once remarked, “I had to go to the doctor to try to get my sex drive lowered”. My wife looked at him and said, “Mr. Stewart (first name Stewart - southern convention of address), did I hear you correctly?” He pointed at his head and said, “Yes, I want to get it lowered from up here to down where it belongs”.
