It has been proven time and time again.

Buggy, do you really think it would not affect crime statistics if the criminal element could be assured that the law abiding populace was reliably unarmed?
It seems an extremely naive belief to me. But, if you really believe that, I have something for you. I've posted it before. Be the first on your block to public make this statement, since your belief is that such a policy wouldn't increase crime.
Put this sign in the front window of your home.
I'll publicly applaud you for your courage if you do so.
