Truth About Citizen Self Defense
On January 12, 2017, the New York Times editorial board claimed, “The grim truth is that concealed-carry permit holders are rarely involved in stopping crime.” And that very same day a concealed carry permit holder in Arizona used his gun to save the life of a state trooper who was under attack on I-10.
Florida State University criminologist Gary Kleck’s research shows that the minimum number of defensive gun uses (DGUs) is 760,000 annually.
AWR Hawkins lists, with some detail, 24 examples that occurred between June 27 and August 10, 2017.
The prevalent "rarely involved in stopping crime" line is an outright lie aimed at a specific audience in order to push an agenda! Truth doesn't fit that agenda.
