Changing America's gun paradigm

Plato, lightly edited :

Thanks to some providential necessity, Sparta and Crete have a splendid and—as I was saying—astonishing institution : communal meals. But at present, unhappily, the rest of the human race has not progressed as far as that, and if you’re wise you won’t breathe a word about such a practice in other parts of the world where states do not recognize communal meals as a public institution at all... the very mention of the correct policy will be met with howls of protest. But perhaps this state will be different.

Exotic is a relative state. What seems normal and unavoidable to some seems impossible to others.
