This is 1.1 million people give or take...You saying it is debunked doesn't make it debunked.....
No common sense does.

For what you say to be true...everyone pictured above would have had to use a gun to defend themselves in the last year.
Most people don't know anyone who has used a gun to defend themselves
Most people don't know anyone who knows anyone who used a gun to defend themselves
But you keep on repeating the lie. You look like an idiot.
And yet actual research by both public and private researchers show you are wrong.....
The Centers for Disease Control says the number is that high...
The Department of Justice says the number is that high.....
those are two from about a dozen actual studies on the topic......
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.....

All this actually says is that no one knows how many times a gun is used in self defence. Every one of these figures are estimated extrapolations from varying samples surveyed and by the looks of it based on subjective rather than objective data. In other words total BS from 2aguy again.
Well, there would be 3,000 uses daily. You’d figure there would be about 1,500 stories (at least) on a day about these uses which would be only 1/2 amount. Show me 1,500 different stories in one day and we’ll examine it.
