Clearly gun crime is a problem in some places. And when we look at gun crime we find it is prevalent in places where citizens have been restricted from having guns and the crooks have all the (illegal) guns. Washington DC is an example.

Add to that the fact that gun crime (in an area) is not related to the guns law-abiding citizens have. Its concentrated in high crime areas where gun laws are weakly enforced – at best.

What we really need is more guns on the street.....legal guns

Never happen. There is oil all over the place and the worst case scenario is that the newer sources are more expensive.
