I don't expect Milk-Carton Barrett or his blue-clad Stooge Flynn to mention this too often.
“Self-defense can be an important crime deterrent,”says a new report
by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The $10 million study was
commissioned by President Barack Obama as part of 23 executive orders he
signed in January.
“Studies that directly assessed the effect of actual defensive uses of guns (i.e., incidents in which a gun was ‘used’ by the crime
victim in the sense of attacking or threatening an offender) have found
consistently lower injury rates among gun-using crime victims compared
with victims who used other self-protective strategies,” the CDC study,
entitled “Priorities For Research to Reduce the Threat of
Firearm-Related Violence,” states. --quoted at Captain's place
