Laws can change. Laws can be strengthened. New laws can be made. New language can be finessed to more accurately pin-point target the exact nature of the offense we are trying to eliminate. BUT if the enforcing arm of these laws is weak - as they always are- nothing of consequence happens. Our ability to enforce the laws and norms already around us fail because the enforcing arm of law is mostly made up of buddies of those they are tasked with enforcing. This happens in all areas of life, from gun law enforcement to environmental policy, to banking regulations, to political corruption. Power plays by different rules.
