I'm not aware of any studies that have a rigorous state by state analysis of concelaed carry laws and the impact on self-defense. If you know of any, I'd love to read them!
If a study doesn't take that into account, isn't it worthless?

Ban on certain types of weapons overwhelmingly used in mass casualty events and little else - e.g. AR-15s
Hold on, you have said many times that you aren’t for gun bans?
When other posters bring up Homicide stats with rifles you dismiss them by saying you don’t want to focus on banning a firearm?! So which is it?

Why the push to ban guns when we are pretty close to the middle of the pack in Guns vs Gun Deaths? From the terribly designed chart, we are better than everyone but Switzerland, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Germany, Greece, and Chile. And that takes into consideration that approximately 80% (going by memory) of our gun deaths are from drug dealing gangbangers, you know, the people that don't buy their guns legally. According to your own graph, the number of gun deaths caused by legal gun owners is small enough to not warrant a need for new laws.

That includes suicides and justifiable homicides in that graph.

it contains features that no civilian needs in day to day life.
also, you are proving my point for me. if "daily use" is being proposed as a differentiating factor, then objects that do have daily use purposes and have been used to kill means that the factor is useless which proves the point that the OBJECT DOESN'T KILL. you are addressing the effect, not the cause.

Interesting thread!
Wasn’t “full-auto” designed to be for suppression and not as a more efficient means to kill troops?
If this is true then the implied assumption that a full-auto military rifle being in a civilian shooting is gaining some advantage, intended strictly for the battlefield, is factually incorrect?

“Taking someone’s word” because of their position is the opposite of objectivity.
It's not taking someone's word, it's understanding that he's not speaking off the cuff and he's not making up numbers. But because you don't like his (valid) conclusions, you try to cast aspersions upon the whole institution.

You're more likely to be murdered by a firearm than a knife in the US

I’m not sure about it being “designed” for that, but that is the common use for it. Military or law enforcement don’t flip their rifles into full-auto when they bust down a door. They are in semi-auto.

Some random gun studies I found:
Murders in US very concentrated: 54% of US counties in 2014 had zero murders, 2% of counties have 51% of the murders
France had more casualties from mass public shootings in 2015 than the US suffered during Obama’s entire presidency (532 to 527)
Over 16.3 million concealed handgun permits, last year saw the largest increase ever in number of permits
