I think a factor one also might want to consider is, Do people feel safe walking the streets at night? Or hell, during the day? If you can answer "yes" then the crime, particularly violent crime, in that area is not a problem.

Well, I know that I'd be scared to move around anywhere, if everyone were hunching on to their concealed firearms in the fear of someone attacking them.

You kidding? I'd love to move to a neighborhood where good, solid people were armed. Nobody walks around with any fear because there'd be nothing to be afraid of.
Fuck this stupid neighborhood I live in. It's going straight down the shitter and nobody's doing a damn thing about it.

Even if there's just good, solid people carrying guns, it's still worse than nobody having them. Police is for a reason, besides there's better ways to protect yourself that doesn't affect such long-term damage as guns.

It's an interesting idea, but I wonder if it assumes too much rationality on the part of desperate addicts, drunken thugs etc.
Guns For All might make nice neigbourhoods better, and bad ones even worse.

Yes, and that's to eat donuts and take kickbacks and ignore crime and blame the victim.
Case in point: Last summer someone tried to break into our house. The police were summoned, and they kept acting like it was
our fault somehow because the guy was drunk and thought it was his house. No, I don't understand it either, but I don't trust the police to protect us when we really need it.

I really do not understand how this is relevant.
Don't worry, you'll grow out of retard edge eventually.

You're hilarious heretic. Your source is obviously unbiased.

At some point this year you stopped being just another innocent twitish newbie on here and became a proper contributer. Why are you spouting utter nonsense like this now?
