Concealed carry up, violent crime down in Florida
In Florida, as in many other states, as the number of concealed carry licensees has gone up, the violent crime rates have gone down. There may or may not be causal connection between these two, but it certainly suggests that concealed carry does not make crime worse.

Both the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and the Texas DPS have publicly stated that the arrest rate of CHL holders is a trivial percentage of all people arrested. Statistically insignificant.
