Well not everyone had guns, but honest citizens gun ownership was much, much higher percentage-wise than it is now.
Look at the 19th century. Crime was almost non-existant. Sure you had the occasional OK corral. But contrary to what western movies would have you believe, shootouts were very rare. Why? Because everyone was packing, and you were libel to get yourself killed drawing your weapon on someone else. School shootings? They would not be a problem of the students were packing heat.
Why not commit crimes now? I look around my city, and armed robbery is so easy to do. No one ever gets caught. I can't figure out why everyone doesn't do it. The police don't even investigate armed robbery anymore. They are too busy with more serious violent crimes. But they hardly solve those either.
Why trust your life in the hands of inept police?
I suggest buying a gun.
