There's already a massive problem, the real question is how do we fix it without simply shifting it to another area. I don't know that I have an answer, but I do know that more guns isn't it.

Exactly. The war on guns would be as effective and detrimental to the US incarceration budget as the war on drugs.
Once people get past the fact that banning guns in the US simply will never happen, they're able to consider other possibilities for increasing gun safety and decreasing gun violence.
