Extremist "solutions" are why we can't have the nice things of sensible solutions.

Okay that's not really true in this case -- I don't know many actual Democrats who are seriously proposing to repeal the 2nd amendment; but when crap like "Defund the Police" gets bandied about too much, somehow we all get tarred with it and it gets in the way of actually solving the actual problems.
