That features two distinct parts:

1. Crazy (a noun for person)

2. Gun (the implement of choice)

Is it easier to "fix" a gun or "fix" a person?

I'd suggest that the gun isn't broken... it's doing what it was designed to do: propel metal projectiles in one direction.

How do we fix the person? Good parenting, education, afterschool sports, social programs, less TeeVee, more sex.

...

Mmm, I should think about this some more.
