That's not 12 lives saved (at minimum) an hour; it's simply 12 defensive uses of guns (could be for any threat). In a country of 350 million...
Here's a WaPo piece on the study. Pay close to the 4th paragraph from the end...

Writer on the financial desk?

Too funny!

  Think of WaPon what you will, but the quoted material from the study stands and speaks for itself. The economic desk? Why not economics; the whole spin is about what a great purchase a gun is. It's one big advertisement.

    exactly what Obama did - commission a study via executive order.
    
    I suspect his handlers, however, are smart enough to understand that the facts simply don't fit their ideological narrative and don't want yet another case of shooting themselves in the foot.
    
    Frankel has zero expertise in the topic.

      Just curious...specifically what facts don't fit their ideologically narrative. This gun brandishing exaggeration is a good example of facts not fitting an idealogical narrative. It comes from both sides.

        The defensive use of guns vastly overwhelms the murder rate from them. Obamula didn't like that reality either.

        I don't want to go on and on about this but...that facts just don't support what you're saying. Have you not followed our conversation? Defensive rate numbers aren't all about saving lives. See how hard you try to see something that's not there? Peace brother...

        Defensive rate numbers aren't all about saving lives.
        
        That's a patently absurd conclusion. Or else you are unfamiliar with the definition of the word.
        
        Don't know what you're smoking, but I'm not having any of that.
        
        Good day!

        The defensive rate numbers are about stopping a crime, not necessarily murder. Those numbers you're trying to glorify are NOT all saved lives. I might ask what you're smoking too, but let's not fight. Just think about it.
