Anyone have a link to the actual study? The link in this article doesn't go anywhere.

Wow, linked from louderwihcrowder, to rare.us, to cnsnews, to where I found it here. For $40... Why do I have to pay for a cdc study? Don't they take my taxes anyways?

Edit: nevermind, found the free download button cleverly hidden directly below.

Edit2: Whoah, 110pg with 10pg of forward. I'm not even studying that much for my finals.

There's another study that's more concise: https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles/165476.pdf

Relevant quote on page 9:

According to these results, guns are used far more often to defend against crime than to perpetrate crime.
