You can stop 100% of crimes with a 100% effective law enforcement mechanism. The term for that is authoritarian dystopia.

Our ancestors recognised this a long time ago, and recognised that there's an intrinsic balance between individual freedoms and the degree to which laws are enforced. We are shifting hard and fast to the extreme authoritarian end of that scale.
