Cramer has been tracking defensive gun uses reported in the media. He recently hit 4K. From Clayton Cramer's Website:

...For all the talk by gun control advocates that "a criminal will just take away your gun and use against you" there were only six incidents in which the defender's gun was taken away and used against the defender. By comparison, there were 183 incidents in which the criminal's gun was taken away and used against the criminal! More startling is that many of these involved victims that were unarmed at the start of the crime...

This is just one bit of a great post by Cramer.

I found out about his post from another great blog, David Hardy's "Of Arms and the Law."
