I agree.

My neighbor was a bee keeper. Once in a while the bees would become rowdy and fly off into a tree down the road. I would see him chasing the rambunctious swarm with some sort sedative smoke machine. He would sedate and collect the bees. And since there was no electricity, he would place the bees down a well until they cooled off and became civilized.

And encourage nuclear winter.

Whatever NYC did from 2006 - 2016 to reduce shootings was clearly working. Since the pandemic the trend has reversed.
