'they actually increase over time' is referring to carry permit applications, not crime.

I'll quit carrying a gun when they make murder and armed robbery illegal

RHenriksen is correct. According to Lott's testimony, Carry Permit applications increased over time after an initial dip. Again, according to Lott, there was no appreciable difference in crime or firearms accidents before or after thus, no affect. Sorry I was not more clear.
