On July 7, 2018, Breitbart News reported Gabby Giffords’ gun control group’s claim that self-defensive gun usage is a “myth.” Giffords’ group said, “The ‘good guy with a gun’ narrative is a myth meant to scare people into buying guns for self-defense. The truth? People rarely use guns for self-defense.”
