What study are you referring to? I'm talking about bearing guns not owning guns

 Yes poeple owning guns but not bearing them is bad

The rate of gun fatalities varies widely from state to state. In 2020, the states with the highest rates of gun-related deaths – counting murders, suicides and all other categories tracked by the CDC – included Mississippi (28.6 per 100,000 people), Louisiana (26.3), Wyoming (25.9), Missouri (23.9) and Alabama (23.6). The states with the lowest rates included New York (5.3), Rhode Island (5.1), New Jersey (5.0), Massachusetts (3.7) and Hawaii (3.4).

So ur..does this "study" came to the conclusion the more the people legally bearing arms in an area the more shit stirred?

Edit: I'm not even counting the gun ownership/availability factor. Just the above statement alone.

If you cannot handle the job then you are unqualified to do it period.  I have to say that is the biggest weakness to this defense you have of some people cannot handle being on camera.  Its the job now and so if you cannot handle it, you should not be doing it.

The thing is, the trust of the police is gone because the police did not properly handle the bad apples within their ranks.  Instead of dealing with them as they should, they attempted to protect them at all cost.  Once you lose trust, it takes a long time to gain it back.  Every professional trade has gone through this from doctors, nurses, lawyers you name it.  When trust is gone there needs to be measures to bring it back.  So yes, every cop needs to have a camera running at all times for any incident between them and a suspect.  We have seen on countless occasions of police abusing their power as well as corruptions within their ranks.  Its not an easy job and everyone isn't cut out to be a police officer nor should they be.

Conclusion is that as gun ownership trends up so does mass shootings. Your hypothesis is that if you just kept going eventually it would start going down, but you have no basis for this. 

What America shows is high gun availability and people not bearing is bad. My point.

Lol this is actually a slightly bad example for Australia as controlled burns happen to prevent major disasters. Our Gum trees and probably other native plants actually require fire for the seeds to germinate and grow, guessing because of how they adopted to our burning environment lol. I guess its natures way of regrowing in a burnt down environment.

The aboriginals used to do controlled burns to ensure the forest would continue to thrive and not burn down to a crisp.  We do a lot of controlled burning here too to burn the fuel on the ground but when money runs out and the fuel piles up after a few seasons of summer, watch out that forest is burning right down trees and all destroy the habitat for native animals. Sadly we are usually so dry and hot that we will continue to burn pretty much every year somewhere that hasn't had any controlled burning done to it. 

With all due respect there is no point in people, including myself, providing data.  You will only accept the answer you want to hear.  The data is crystal clear for those who are open minded.  

Access to firearms increases violence, full stop.  More guns isn't the answer.  

Actually, what most studies have shown is no reduction of crime at all, but instead more violent encounters because everyone use the tool of choice for every encounter.  If you are packing and someone else is packing, any argument has a high probability that the dispute will be resolved with the main tool of choice.  Studies have shone an increase in deadly encounters when more people actually conceal and carry.

Case in point, lets say you get in an argument with someone and they push you down, with all the stand your ground laws now, this would be the perfect opportunity to shoot that person in self defense.  You reaching for your gun would be the perfect time to the other person to kill you in self defense.

You start a fight but you are getting your butt kicked, well you pull out your gun in self defense.  You see a robbery, you pull out your gun.  You witness a fight, you pull out your gun.  What studies have shone is that the gun become the most common tool used for every incident so each encounter escalate.  Living in places where everyone is armed actually does not make you feel safer, it make you more paranoid because any encounter can end with someone resolving it with a gun.

Kind of interesting that guns are promoted for defense purposes, but yet over 50% of gun deaths in the US are suicides... meaning people are more likely to shoot themselves than others.
