Look, all specious arguments aside, a gun is the best deterent to a violent crime.

It is a deterent in two ways:

1. If criminals know there are law abiding people carrying firearms, they are less likely to attempt blatent violent crimes to begin with.

2. Once in a situation there is absolutely nothing that imparts the same sense of immediacy and directness as a firearm pointed at you.
