According to the survey hand guns were used 1.9 million times a year in the US to stop a crime. Now using your formula of 1,000 gun crimes to 1 were a gun was used in defense, which you claimed to have a URL for but didn't post, that would mean 1.9 billion people were gunned down in the US last year.
