RE: One statistic that I have never heard reported ...

"Is the ratio of offensive to defensive firearm discharges (at other people). I would bet that firearms actually being used to defend against gun-wielding threats are actually very rare, and the 'I have it for my own protection' crowd are fooling themselves. That, and pulling a gun to defend yourself is very likely to get you shot first, because you have just raised the stakes to a lethal level."

Let's review: You don't know, so you surmise, guess, assume, (bet), based on your own political pre-disposition. Have I got that right?
