Actually the gun per person ratio is not the issue, I cite switzerland as my counter example. Switzerland keeps a standing militia and every male at age 20 is GIVEN a gun by the government. Thus they have one of the highest gun to person ratios in the world yet one of the lowest gun crime rates. And perhaps the reason why its so low is because there are so many guns, nobodody can walk into a school or some other place to blow people away without getting blown away first (the problem with our gun free zones is that they are only obeyed by law abiders)
Also everyone is supposedly trained with the use of the weapon gun safety. But the point is that the number of guns is not the problem, as given by the switzerland example and many others. Also gun control laws, statistically speeking, have not been shown to lower gun crimes at all, oh yeah there are a lot of claims by politicians but isn't there always.
