The statement from "award-winning" Gary Cleck is not enough to prove it. The 2.5 million times a firearm is used for protection in a house does not account for the number of kills/wounded during these crimes (criminal and victims alike).
Most of all, it does not account for the number of armed victims deaths vs unarmed (and still) victims deaths during similar events.
We should both go to the Library and check out Kleck's book and read it. I know I haven't. I have heard him quoted a lot though, by both sides of this issue. I know that he was originally commissioned to do this book by the antis. They were extremely unpset when his conclusions didn't match theirs.
