This, I think, is where the rub comes in. I'll absolutely agree that empathy and sympathy are not the reasons to write laws.
But I don't think anyone is in search of a problem. There is without question a problem, and it is not in the least off the mark to discuss what can reasonably be done to make it less of a problem.
Not every suggestion will be reasonable. Not every suggestion will be feasible. Not every suggestion will be effective. That's no reason not to have the discussion.
