Any suggestion that guns are bad, that guns increase violence or that crime can directly be attributed to guns is not only ludicrous, it is a statistical, empirical and known fallacy.

The notion that reason is necessary to have a complete civilized society is perhaps noble, but unreasonable when considering human nature. Imperfect and emotional, the human being will use whatever means are available to achieve power, whatever they perceive that power to be.

As was stated far better than anyone else;
"Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion [that violence never settles anything] is wishful thinking at its worst. Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and their freedoms."

Actually Mithus, contrary to popular opinion, there is far worse racism, violence and crime in the northern states than in the south.
