The problem is a parole system that allows violent felons back out on the street. I sometimes believe this is done to make the streets more dangerous than they would be otherwise, so the sheeple will cry, "Its so dangerous out there! Please Mr. Big Government, do something!!"

Our justice system is a mess because it is more concerned with LAW than it is with justice. Fix that and a lot of things would be better.

Allowing us to protect ourselves from predators would do the rest.

A multitude of problems are caused by government, which then offers a (non-) solution to them, which in turn creates more problems, etc., etc. All along the way, we are relieved of the burden of carrying around so much money and of our rights.

It IS a plan, just not a coordinated one - the pols of the various factions each have their own agendas, as do the bureaucraps.
