Ongoing Breakdown of Society

I grew up in the greater Seattle area back in the 70s. Gun ownership was a common thing. The WWII Generation had set up a modern society. Moms and Dads were in charge. Seattle was a considered to be a safe place for teens to go on dates.

Today, not a week goes by without news reports of gunfire and maybe fatalities in the Seattle area.

Will Real ID make it better?

Would any newsperson ever ask:

Has any WA gun control measure or public policy effort of the past 20 years slowed down the gunfire between say, Everett and Tacoma?

What works? What fails?

Newspeople remain silent.

Everett updates here.

Seattle updates here.

Tacoma updates here.

Voting is highly emphasized in American culture. Newspeople asking questions related to public policy takes a lower priority.
