Arrest the Stupid...?

I don't know. I'm not a big fan of police power, but I'm sorta on this cops' side...

I know Mother Nature is. Here's a quote from Robert Heinlein that applies:
"Stupidity cannot be cured with money, or through education or by legislation. Stupidity is not a sin, the victim can't help being stupid. But stupidity is the only universal capital crime; the sentence is death, there is no appeal, and execution is carried out automatically and without pity."
This applies to individuals, cultures and governments.

A word to the wise.
