I'm sorry but 16 deaths out of 1.7 million people is hardly an issue.
Yes, those stories were sad. But the truth is restraining orders only work on people who weren't likely to do any harm in the first place.
Crazy people will always do crazy things. We can't write "tougher" laws to combat crazy. It just doesn't work.
