One thing to note is that in most of Sweden we don't have as much robberies and such as in some parts of the US, and muggers are often unarmed, relying on strength in numbers, fear or the element of surprise. Because the common perception is that firearms aren't often used by criminals people would see legal carrying of concealed handguns as bringing guns to the streets, not as arming the good guys.
So it is common in Sweden for citizens to just relinquish their possessions on demand?
If that condition is rampant I suggest a change in attitude as well as tactics by the people en mass. Even if it isn't rampant yet the fact that there is this conditioning in the populous lends itself to defenseless violence if the conditions change either economic or social.
I say the innocent need to adjust before the criminal.
If there is a Sheep/Wolf analogy you have described it in Sweden.
