I think I missed something....What's wrong with UK/Australia? Their crime-rate isn't particularly bad. |
Look for a reference called "Gun Facts": it's a collection of statistics and figures for various countries and US states. Unanimously, states and countries with less gun control have reduced crime rates while places like the UK and Australia have suffered from increased crime rates (especially violent crime) since introducing restrictive legislation or just banning firearms outright... it's all over the board.
Firearms ownership is a powerful deterrent against home invasions, home burglaries, assaults, rape, et cetera. Problem is, politicians and anti-gun lobbies want you thinking otherwise.
