Detroit— If more citizens were armed, criminals would think twice about attacking them, Detroit Police Chief James Craig said Thursday.
Urban
police chiefs are typically in favor of gun control or reluctant to
discuss the issue, but Craig on Thursday was candid about how he’s
changed his mind.
(snip)
“Coming from California (Craig was on the Los
Angeles police force for 28 years), where it takes an act of Congress to
get a concealed weapon permit, I got to Maine, where they give out lots
of CCWs (carrying concealed weapon permits), and I had a stack of CCW
permits I was denying; that was my orientation.
“I
changed my orientation real quick. Maine is one of the safest places in
America. Clearly, suspects knew that good Americans were armed.”

Not sure gun toting is the answer but Detroit's crime stats certainly are not awesome. http://www.asecurelife.com/home-alarm-systems-michigan/
