the united states literally does not have the state capacity to do this and what it will look like in practice is empowered cops, sheriffs deputies, and national guardsman going house to house rounding up people

most conservatives have a strong suspicion that the sterile exurban communities they've chosen to live in suck and America's cities are full of people doing fun, exciting and sexy stuff, so there's naturally an enormous appetite among them for stories about city dwellers being violently punished
