Plenty of data on where most of the murder is coming from.

It's a question of broken windows. Criminals will always kill criminals. When cops are allowed to kill with impunity it opens a potential floodgate of police brutality. It needs to be disincentivized.

It may. It may also be a complement of some part of both. I tend to side against the state and in favor of liberty even when it's expensive in some way. Ultimately whatever is going on is messy enough that I'm happy to just wait until post-singularity AI figures it out.

If that's the case, then everything I stand for and everything I've ever dreamed of is a lie. If trade and markets can't accommodate a diverse population, can't make life better for everyone, can't assume the responsibilities that an overreaching state uses to justify itself...
