> Generally speaking we have a problem in America that there are a lot of potentially violent mentally-unsound people roaming around, we have no cohesive plan to get these people treatment/help/medication, and in most major cities you will be penalized for defending yourself so you have little recourse if someone decides to attack you.
Woof, I think this right here is the thing that we'll never get beyond. I get that when we talk about psychological safety for this, it's hard to point at numbers because people don't make measured judgments about numbers... But when you make a claim like that, I think it deserves some numbers to be more than just fear mongering.
