Curious if anybody can help me find these, I've either not found anything, or only found questionable sources. Prefer those from federal and/or state statistics database sites.
-How many people have been murdered by assault rifles in the US after year 2000(I found a lot of pre 1995 stuff but that was mostly it).
-How many murders happen from lawfully owned, legally obtained gun owners? Does this number include righteous self defense as well?
-Any idea if any mass murderers or crazies(such as the Aurora, CO guy) grew up in a household with firearms present?
-Are "good shoots" counted towards the "homicide by firearms" statistic by the FBI? Any idea how many there really are?
Basically I want a really good source to have some links ready for some actual facts for debates and crap on FB.
This was from another guy's thread, but it was a great link to start with:

Remember, I want facts with credible and non-biased sources! Thanks in advance!
Between juggling my 11hr/day work schedule and having a new baby at home, if I ever happen to find time, I'll attempt to compile them together into this first post. If a mod deems something worthy, they're welcome to do so as well
