Slightly off topic, but related I think. At least two towns that I know of (Virgin, Utah and and Kennesaw, Georgia) have laws which require all households to be armed for self defense. Does anyone have the crime stats for those towns? Are there any other towns which have the same laws? Common sense says that criminals will avoid those places.

There are no laws anywhere that actually compell anyone to own or carry. Such a law would be struck down in a moments notice. Kennesaw's law is admittedly and openly symbolic, written with no penalty for disobedience so it couldn't be challenged in court.
