Problem is, we're not starting from a blank slate.

We have aggressors, carrying guns, extorting money, as our starting
point.

What's being asked for (and no, I have no easy answers either), is how
do we transition whilst minimizing interim aggression.

And no, neither your nor nobody is obliged to answer that question.
There's merely a hope that we might find a sane pathway out of this
mess we are collectively in.

Good luck,
