We manage to get that without the threat of shooting. The homicide rates and crime rates in general, prison population levels, in the UK and Australia, which are both relatively gun free, are significantly lower % wise than in the US.

Psychologically guns might be making people feel safer but the actual figures suggest it's not worse where guns aren't a way of life.
