Okay so I'm late getting in on this and I'm not going to point out individual arguments that I disagree with but I will say this:
-statistics can be made to say whatever you want..for the most part
-outlawing guns won't solve anything
-neither will arming everyone (there are some people that just should not own guns)
I don't think that the "lower crime rate" means too much because there are many things that influence crime rates and just because one type of crime was lower doesn't mean that less people were victims or attackers.
The problem of crime isn't centered around guns anyways, people tend to use the easiest weapon they can find, at the moment that happens to be guns.
