I need to know that Kleck is not full of shit. Whatcha got? Show me how you know his numbers are good. That's your only assignment for your next reply to me.
Because the only way it could be wildly (like, by an order of magnitude) wrong is if almost everybody who thinks that a gun saved his or her life is mistaken. I can see how that could be the case if Gary Kleck hadn't asked "Have you actually seen the attacker." (maybe many people are deluded and think a gun saved them from an attacker that wasn't actually there), but I fail to see how it can be true given that Gary Kleck only counted those who claim to have actually seen the attacker.
