"Gun laws help us much more than guns in the hands of citizens in reducing violent deaths."

As can be seen by the amazingly low crime rate in DC, which has the strictest gun control laws in the country. /sarcasm

But less gun control coincides with less crime. Since 1991, the number of guns in America has risen by about 60 million, the number of Right-to-Carry states has risen from 17 to 37, and the violent crime rate has decreased every year, 35% overall, to a 27-year low (FBI).
