You need to look at Dr. Gary Kleck's study at the University of Florida. His study and other studies, completely independant of the NRA consistently show over 2 million people a year using guns in one way or another to defend themselves. Courts have rulled the police only have to provide collective protection and do not have to show up to protect you. The police didn't protect people killed and injured by rioters in the LA riots in the early 1990s for example.
