Unfortunately, that statement is not a complete sentence. All it seems to say is that enacting more laws do not make for a safer or better society. (But it will keep legislators busily employed.)

Yes, they are, bit by tiny bit. The 'straw man' of emotionality is your addition.

That is indeed what fabian Socialism aspires to do: erode freedom tiny bit, by tiny bit.

In the meantime, no one ever touches their emissions equipment, no convicts ever get their hands on guns, no one ever drives drunk, no one ever tries to scam another person. What's this? People still do that?? How is it possible? Aren't there laws against that??
