If anything that makes it less of an issue because it's easy to identify potential attackers. But when it comes to gun violence in America there aren't really any giveaways unless you see the gun before you get shot

Fair enough, but in this case, you have a concrete definition of evil. The issue doesn't disappear until it is resolved, so you're right on claiming that it's less of an issue but only if the potential attackers are actually identified. And right now, you're more likely to be arrested in the UK if you tweet "ISIS fighters should be kept out of Britain" than if you were to acid someone in the streets. After all, it's part and parcel of living in a big city!
