You are misinformed. When people carry concealed crime numbers drop because criminals are also scared to die and only want easy targets. And you won’t see the gun if they’re carrying concealed so the class of people you’re talking about, open carrying and brandishing, are not the same people concealed carrying.

Maybe, but apparently murder numbers grow. This is the first example of Europe vs USA murder rates I was able to google

Are all of them criminals murdered in self defense? I would be surprised. And if that was the case, then some crime was going on.

Well you can’t get a concealed carry permit in Europe, and you cant compare two countries like this, where one has extreme gun control and the other doesn’t and then further go on to compare crime rates. This doesn’t even fit into the proper definition of experiment, where’s the control?
