2 birds with one stone
How about we take all the guns in the country and lock them up in a giant city like new york along with all violent criminals and let them dispatch themselves?
​
Ridding the country of both guns and criminals.
​
We could put cameras all over the place and have a fantastic reality show to boot.
​
We could call it....Escape from New York!
Oh its been done? Rats.

Hmm, Tea, Tonic & gin, IPA and on time trains.
As opposed to abject subjugation of the country.

Reminds me of that Monty python line

Monty Python Life of Brian:All right... all right... but apart from better sanitation and medicine and education and irrigation and public health and roads and a freshwater system and baths and public order... what have the Romans done for us?
