Guns have been used 100 MILLION times to stop violent criminals in my lifetime but I don`t know of 1 single person who has done so. Not one. ZERO! Do you realize how idiotic your claim is?How many accidental guns deaths in the
UK?
Doesn't matter.....we have guns, we will have accidents.....Americans use guns 1,500,000 times a year to stop violent criminals, the British violent crime rate is going up.....
Not my claim, asshole......it is actual research by both private and government researchers many of them pro gun control researchers who set out to prove your side of the argument....and had their own beliefs destroyed........bill clinton's Department of Justice study, barak obama's CDC research in 2013.........tell them they are wrong...
A quick guide to the studies and the numbers.....the full lay out of what was studied by each study is in the links....
The name of the group doing the study, the year of the study, the number of defensive gun uses and if police and military defensive gun uses are included.....notice the bill clinton and obama defensive gun use research is highlighted.....

Journal of Quantitative Criminology--- 989,883 times per year."
(Based on survey data from a 2000 study published in the Journal of Quantitative Criminology,[17] U.S. civilians use guns to defend themselves and others from crime at least 989,883 times per year.[18])

Ohio...1982...771,043
Gallup...1991...777,152
Tarrance... 1994... 764,036 (no cops, military)
Lawerence Southwich Jr. 400,000 fewer violent crimes and at least 800,000 violent crimes deterred..
*****************************************
If you take the studies from that Kleck cites in his paper, 16 of them....and you only average the ones that exclude military and police shootings..the average becomes 2 million...I use those studies because I have the details on them...and they are still 10 studies (including Kleck's)....
