Quite simple.  Eliminate prison, encourage everyone to carry weapons, wait 6

will find themselves well-adjusted or dead.

Rough 6 months.  Try to spend it in the South of France.

moms are afraid of assault rifles, how will they react to the nastiness you 
will be able to gin up from you desktop fab station in a few years.
