The ridiculous violence in N.O.

You think taking guns away is going to stop people from killing each other? People have been killing each other before guns were invented. Gun control is a joke, all that would do is take guns away from innocent people and the thugs would still be able to have their guns.

Sure, people would still be killed, but it would be much harder than simply pulling a trigger. Decriminalize drugs. Rather than jail time, demand community service. Reduce our world-leading incarceration rate, and provide rehab and jobs to those currently in jail for drug offenses.

Have you been to Tulane and Broad? Go sit in magistrate court one morning and listen to how many young men are going through the prison judicial system for a roach, joint, or a few grams of crack. Those people don't need prison. Some may need rehab.

Then, tighten gun control. The thugs get guns when they rob a house or open an unlocked car door. There's go to be a better way to get guns off the street.
