"the enforcement of strong societal norms against criminal behavior, such as shaming. "
We poke fun at the Amish sometimes, but they certainly have the right idea when it comes to shunning. It's a concept that's highly underrated. And not just the criminals but use it against the virtue signalling PC not see as well.

Another tactic used by the virtue signallers is to exploit the children when these tragedies occur. Really not much different than how Hamas uses their own children for sympathy and propaganda purposes, especially when they get caught in the cross fire “instigated” by the eevil IDF. A little collateral damage goes a long way.

>>This is not a call for physical violence against such individuals, but rather the enforcement of strong societal norms against criminal behavior, such as shaming. <<

90% of all our societal problems — primarily poverty and violence — are the result of the banishment of shame from the public square.

The fact people say “he my baby daddy” with not a trace of shame is the sign we are lost.

It’s because ones like NY Governor Cuomo get to lecture to the NRA and try to achieve their goal of having very little, if any, legal tolerance for civilian firearms ownership but still get to send their own kids to expensive, exclusive private schools that are not at all like the closed union shops that tolerate habitually bad behaviour (ie: the public schools).

With that, they can still take money and political support from the teachers’ unions and not at all confront them and their Robert Runciesque policies that lead to violence and those very tragic instances in Florida and Texas.

The latest school shooting in Santa Fe, Texas brings out the same tired rhetoric from the left. They’re blaming guns, the NRA, and President Trump. What the left isn’t doing, however, is offering new and pragmatic solutions.

For leftards it nurture. They blame society and the environment for problems. The solution is use big gov and more gov spending to reform society. Christians know it is nature. Since the fall, man has a sinful nature. Each individual must seek the help of Christ and reform himself.

It’s clear that something has changed in regard to how people seek help and how they overcome the realities of life. Liberalism is that change – pampering people in safe spaces instead of making them act like adults.

He has hit the proverbial nail squarely on the head.

Besides what this good man recommends, we need to start holding the liberal leaders, locally to the top, responsible for the damage their marginal subjects do to others and their property.
