“I don’t understand. Why doesn’t the city council just pass a law against murder? That would solve the problem.”

No, you don’t understand, you have to outlaw anything that can be used to commit murder, no legal sales of baseball bats, screwdrivers, knives, hammers, large wrenches, rope, tires, grapevines, firewood etc... on the other hand just mandate that everyone must have their arms and legs amputated, that ought to really put a dent in the murder rate.
They can still bite. Or maybe we can call it a draw.
