Illustrating the problem of quantifying these types of statistics, on Wednesday, police announced that a particularly nasty shooting death – a fatal gun battle earlier this month outside a North Pointe funeral – had been re-classified as a “justifiable homicide.” Basically, cops think the killing was in self-defense, which means it doesn’t fit the FBI classification used to tally crime stats nationwide.
Documenting civilians using guns in self-defense. Largely because a well-known gun control activist insisted to me that defensive use of guns by civilians was very rare: "maybe once in ten years."
