Wow, what an admission

Even the Washington Post admits that thousands upon thousands of people use guns to defend themselves every year!

That's a big deal and up from previous admissions of 'near zero' defensive gun uses by ordinary people they've been trying to tell me all my life. 

I think they lowball their estimate, and 1:6 is too low in their survey. But, hey, at least they have budged on the legitimate use of firearms.  That's a big step for them.  Credit where credit is due.  Now maybe the Post will help improve that ration by helping us expand gun bearing by the good guys.
