When there are more guns, there are more accidents with guns.”
You see DD? Crime rates will go up with more guns in circulation, even without "the intruders". Mr. Boess is very cautious, calling gun violence "accidents".

From: Gun Sales Up in 12 Swiss Cantons:
"Applications for gun permits in Switzerland increased by 20% between 2014 and 2015, according to a survey conducted in 12 cantons by Swiss public television, SRF.
The survey, published on Wednesday, showed that in the 12 (out of 26) cantons surveyed, the Swiss are increasingly interested in purchasing pistols, rifles and other firearms for private use."

Fatal accidents happen everyday, accidental gun deaths don't even rank. From the CDC web site, accidents for 2014;
All unintentional injury deaths
•Number of deaths: 130,557
•Deaths per 100,000 population: 41.3
•Cause of death rank: 4
Unintentional fall deaths
•Number of deaths: 30,208
•Deaths per 100,000 population: 9.6
Motor vehicle traffic deaths
•Number of deaths: 33,804
•Deaths per 100,000 population: 10.7
Unintentional poisoning deaths
•Number of deaths: 38,851
•Deaths per 100,000 population: 12.3
As afar as more deaths from crime, far and away those are concentrated in cities, more notably in the "bad" sections of town. This map suggests that, I'm sure there are maps of particular cities and where the most gun deaths occur and I almost guarantee it's in the gang/drug controlled neighborhoods.

If people think the neighborhood is becoming dangerous and start to arm themselves, especially a country like Sweden, I doubt the intention is criminal.
