Agreed. And you prove my point in a way. Our litigious (Edit: and racially preferential) culture is part of the issue. A holistic approach is a principled one.

Agreed. And you prove my point in a way. Our litigious (Edit: and racially preferential) culture is part of the issue. A holistic approach is a principled one. Clear laws are principled. For example, noise ordinances in SF say there's a violation if event or action is 10 decibels greater than the ambient. Or, if you push someone, harass a child en route to school, shoot up on the street, defecate on the street, etc. These are clear violations.
