CDC Surveys provide More Evidence of Gun defensive use

Kleck has been making outrageous claims on this since he published it in 1995. It's not mainstream because it's bunk.

....Attacking the CDC typically only occurs when someone is pushing an agenda.

Hmm. Don't know why you are citing Kleck and his methods. This posting deals with survey data created by the CDC itself. It seems that the CDC does not contradict some of Kleck's claims about defensive gun usage.

CDC evidently declined to publish the data.

Absolutely true. Gun grabbers an their useful idiots completely overlook information like this. There have also been more recent studies hat confirm the prevalence of self-defense gun use. In many cases just the presence of a gun defuses or deters the problem.

Yes this is why America, with the most guns in the world, has the least gun deaths.....right?

Toddler shoots and kills pregnant mom. In Europe that would lead to a massive investigation and would be headline news. Here we call that Tuesday
