Yes, fix the revolving-door "due-process" system so that criminals are kept
off the streets, so they don't keep getting out of the slammer to repeatedly
mug,rob,rape and kill.  When there is the fear of death in the minds of
criminals, then crime will stop, and not till then.  Because they know they
can get away with murder and literally be back out on the streets in a max of
7 years with good behaviour even on a "life" sentence, they continue to find
crime profitable.  When they fear that plain-vanilla citizens will shoot back
(un-ban handguns), or that they will in fact either remain in jail for life,
or get killed by the justice system, then they will stop being criminals.
