My only observation is having lived in several different countries, those with low guns/high gun control were safer by several magnitudes than the high guns/low gun control countries. That may have been true for the specific counties you live in, but overall its closer to being the opposite. nationalreview.com mcsm.org largo.org ncpa.org ---- I do think that perhaps getting to almost no guns would lower at least the murder rate (it might not lower the rate of other crimes and in fact would probably increase some of them), but just having a low but not extremely low level of guns tends to mean that the criminals can be armed and the possible victims probably are not.
