Actually, this is a step in the right direction; and in related news, use of rifles in a salute at military funerals will be modified so that rather than firing blanks - whose sounds have been proven to give PTSD to people standing nearby - the rifles will be fitted with small flags, reading BANG, which will pop quietly out of the muzzles. The flags are being supplied by the Acme Company, and CEO, Mr. W.E. Coyote, feels that this will usher in a new more peaceful era.
