No, I have evidence that increases in legal gun ownership doesn't increase crime.

In the US, for two decades we seen overall violent crime go down even while many states liberalized their gun laws( allowing more people to conceal carry etc). If allowing people to own and carry legally increased crime and gun violence, then we should've seen a huge increase in murders across the board. But we didn't.

Some places are still bad but they tend to be the places with the most harsh gun restrictions like Chicago.

Point is that the root causes of violence is beyond guns and owning them legally.
