It is a mistake to assume there is any Earthly way to stop crazy people from killing unarmed people in a free society. Even in tyrannical societies, the crazies didn't care if they got killed. They still killed other people.

So canceling the rights of law abiding citizens to address the phenomenon is not only wrong. It is ineffective. The same is true of "affirmative action" and every other extra-Constitutional measure. They discriminate against the majority and create chaos in society. Better that society address some things as best it can and accept that humanity itself can not be controlled, even by tyranny, and that in a free society, it will never be very orderly.

“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety. Deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” - Benjamin Franklin.

And some people think there is a separate kind of being called "The Government." It is just people, scared and fallible as are we all.

So as far as the virus is concerned, better to rely on your own wits if you are smart. If not, find a smart person you trust and do as they say.

It is not proved any more dangerous yet than the common flu. So anyone reacting as if it is, has shown themselves to be not smart. Don't trust them.
