Gun Facts | Guns and Their Use in Crime Prevention
Research on guns as they are used in self-defense (defensive gun use). Includes information on how often they are used, victim injury rates for different defense tactics, as well as international crime data.Myth: Private ownership of guns is not effective in preventing crime
Fact: “Victims who have and use guns have both lower losses and lesser injury rates from violent crime.” 1
Fact: Every year, people in the United States use guns to defend themselves against criminals an estimated 2,500,000 times – more than 6,500 people a day, or once every 13 seconds. 2 Of these instances, 15.7% of the people using firearms defensively stated that they “almost certainly” saved their lives by doing so.
Fact: Even the government’s estimate, which has a major methodology problem, 3 estimates people defend themselves 235,700 times each year with guns. 4
Fact: Victims with guns “would reduce … the criminals’ incentives to commit violent crimes and to be armed.” 5
Fact: The number of times per year an American uses a firearm to deter a home invasion alone is 498,000. 6
Fact: In 83.5% (2,087,500) of these successful gun defenses, the attacker either threatened or used force first, proving that guns are very well suited for self-defense. 7
Fact: There are approximately 182,000 defensive gun uses in public each year. 8
Fact: The rate of defensive gun use (DGU) is six times that of criminal gun use. 9
Fact: Of the 2,500,000 times citizens use guns to defend themselves, 92% merely brandish their gun or fire a warning shot to scare off their attackers. 10
Fact: In most of the remaining 8% of defensive gun uses, a citizen never wounds his or her attacker (they fire warning shots), and in less than one in a thousand instances is the attacker killed. 11
Fact: 41% of justifiable homicides using a gun were by private citizens, the others by law enforcement. 12
Fact: In one local review of firearm homicide, more than 12% were civilian legal defensive homicides. 13
Fact: For every accidental death (802), suicide (16,869) or homicide (11,348) 14 with a firearm (29,019), 13 lives (390,000) 15 are preserved through defensive use.
Fact: When using guns in self-defense, 91.1% of the time, not a single shot is fired. 16
Fact: After the implementation of Canada’s 1977 gun controls prohibiting handgun possession for protection, the “breaking and entering” crime rate rose 25%, surpassing the American rate. 17

armed citizens are the best deterrence to crimeYou lying sack of mud. The police don't want more guns in citizens hands. We need to train those who have guns.
Idiots like you give all gun owners a bad game.
Opinion | Policymakers are ignoring the warnings of these experts on guns
As policymakers roll back gun laws, officers now have to worry that nearly every civilian has the means to use deadly force.

No worries, he'll get the same pass the "grab'em by the *****" got.Nothing says family values like Florida MAGA GOP leaders.
Christian Ziegler, MAGA backed chairman of the Florida GOP and his wife Bridgitt, co-founder of MAGA Moms for Liberty group have exposed their family values.
Christian has been accused of rape by a Florida woman. In testimony, Bridgett testified the woman, who accused Christian, had had sex togther, a menge et toi. Christian admitted having sex with the woman but said it was consentual and his wife was not part of this event.
Bridget is leading a MAGA group putting pressure on school boards to take their definition of immorality out of the school curriculum.
Maybe Christaina and Bridget should start by cleaning up the morality at home.

Exactly, KILLED. The police are trained. They only kill when absolutely necessary.armed citizens are the best deterrence to crime
CCRKBA: 'FBI Report Says Armed Citizens Killed More Criminals Than Police'
"Last year, according to the data, armed citizens killed 343 criminals during the commission of a felony while police fatally shot 298 felons.
The facts disagree with your unsubstantiated opinion.
YOUR FACTS SHOWED PRIVATE CITIZENS KILLED MORE CRIMINALS THAN THE POLICE. That should not happen. I provided multiple documents contradicting your claims.
you are wrong again, of justified homicides, 59% were by the police, 41% by citizens.

I gave the link, I am quoting from what I have already posted. The last fact posted came from the US government
The stat you quoted was before 2019, since 2019 there have been more justifiable homicides by private citizens.

okay, you linked? your links both confirm I am right, thank youThe stat you quoted was before 2019, since 2019 there have been more justifiable homicides by private citizens.
Plus your stat is about justifiable homicides. Many homicides by trigger happy citizens, thinking they are protecting themselves, are determined to not be justifiable homicide. Substantially more than are determined to be justified.

In 2024, law enforcement officers committed *** justifiable homicides in the United States.
