Husband found your site the other day and lorded it over me because he beat me to it. I've been telling him stuff I have read on THR over the holidays and then he started telling me stories. I have to tell you:

I had NO IDEA.

I always bought what I had "learned" getting my crim j degree (in the 90's) and read in newspapers/magazines; that people rarely use firearms to save their own life or the life of another person. I bought our guns for a hobby that could be useful at some vague future date, but without thought of self-defense. At this point they are still in the safe when we aren't cleaning or shooting but I will be taking the next defensive course offered by our local shop.

Thank you very much for the time that you have put into this.

Hi All,

Just wanted to drop in a give a few updates on the GunsSaveLives.net project.

- We're getting close to clearing 400 stories of self defense
- We are in the process of categorizing every story by state, weapons used and victim demographics and we're hoping to use this information to build a more robust advanced search feature.
- We've changed the site layout to be a little more user friendly
- We're adding between 1-3 new stories per day

So if you have any stories you want to submit or any feedback please feel free to share it with us!
