Just want to point out that feeling safer without guns is more of an opinion than a fact. I know someone who spent some time in Israel, a place that has seen far more than its share of violence throughout history. Yet this person said that he felt safer in Israel than almost anywhere else. Why? Because more people carried guns there, particularly the extensive military and police forces. Not intending to seriously get into this debate, just wanted to throw that out there.
