Laws --> enforcement.
As here - where for every new problem, pols pass new laws --> you need a $300/hr lawyer merely to sort out the dbase of this artery-clogging crap.
Ditto internationally except: we still all give highly limited access to 'sovereignty issues' re the UN (then blame them for being 'ineffective'). It's what we do.
So no.. *this time* there may need to occur some actual changes, and not just paper rewriting. Let's start the ball rolling at home:
Abuse a Semite? - get the same book thrown at you - as with 3 Strikes = caught with a month's supply of drugs 3X? = 40 years.
Then we might talk about our very own Terrorist-funding 'War on Drugs' -- that is, if we get so scared that, we actually look! at our internal hypocrisy about the New Prohibition.
(Is WTC enough of a shock yet, to catalyze anything That drastic?)
