lets say i was a bad guy, looking to invade someones home or mug someone in the street. would i be more likely to do so in an area where gun ownership is prevalent, or would i want to find a spot where im the only one with a gun?
thats why crime in Switzerland is so low. everyone has a weapon, and they all know how to use it.

the majority of legal gun owners, especially those licensed to carry concealed, are very knowledgeable, responsible, and mature. when was the last time you heard in the news about someone with a ccw shooting someone in the street?

not as often as you hear about random thugs shooting people, im sure.
