NYC. Chicago. Detroit. Atlanta. This ain't it chief. There is no correlation between "fewer guns" and "more petty theft". The common factor is culture of crime and it comes in different flavors. There are countries in Europe that completely outlawed even pistol ownership without extensive classes and expensive licenses, and yet they're some of the safest countries in the world. Has to do with culture and general population hostility, and the tensions and hostility will always naturally be higher among the armed population as been proved by history time and time again.
