Original Note:

The CDC has estimated upwards of 2.5M defensive gun uses in the U.S. annually. This figure was published in 2021, but removed in 2022 at the behest of gun control advocacy groups. The original estimate on Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20211209100652/https://www.cdc.gov/violenceprevention/firearms/fastfact.html Exposé including emails detailing the removal: https://thereload.com/emails-cdc-removed-defensive-gun-use-stats-after-gun-control-advocates-pressured-officials-in-private-meeting/
