Would any statistics on "skill" in some gun-owners defending themselves and shooting an armed opponent be cancelled out by stats on:
"A 2013 study of U.S. states in the American Journal of Public Health found that for each percentage-point increase in gun ownership, the overall firearm homicide rate increased by 0.9 percent, controlling for other factors."

So again, that's only counting homicide. Not gun death by officers, suicide, domestic violence, accidental death.
This is not a "ban guns" thread.
It's about the logical fallacy in believing that having guns protects you.
- gun deaths by suicide,
- poor defence,
- being shot by police by holding a fake or toy gun
- accidental
- other ways of being shot?
