63. So if the burglar runs away when he see my gun then it isn't a defensive gun use?
I certainly think it should count. My wife defended herself from an attack with her gun but she didn't have to shoot. The bad guy ran away.

The Kellerman study is badly flaws as it only counted dead burglars (Wounded ones didn't count.) and if the burglar used his own gun to shoot the residence then they counted that as a "gun in the home".

You have been told several times previously about the flaws of the Kellerman study. You know better but choose to use it anyway.
