There is no quick fix. Patching one hole in a boat that leaks everywhere is not going to keep it from sinking.

I think it would be better to be condemned for doing something and failing, than to be be damned for standing back and watching it happen.

Here we go again... and cars are used for getaways from bank robberies. So get rid of cars. Knives are used to stab people. Bats are used to bludgeon people. You can't just go around banning everything that someone uses to commit a crime.
