I agree with much more in your comment than I don't, but

> It's astonishingly easy to not get shot: don't invade someone's home.

Is pat to the point of naiveté.

People get shot turning into the wrong driveway[1], or knocking on the wrong door[2]. If anything, it's astonishingly easy to get shot in the US of A.

But, you probably meant something like that when you said

> you don't want ordinary people shooting randomly at each other. The government / police should be able to handle this [but don't.

And I agree with that on both points.
