A quick look at the statistics of deaths by firearm can pretty much debunk everything you wrote.
America is the gun death capital of the world.

Can you please tell me the CDCs estimation of lives saved per year by the defensive use of firearms.
Put that number next to the estimated deaths by firearms per year, excluding suicides and accidental discharges.
Would you be willing to do that?

Pretty sure the CDC doesn't track such a statistic.

Not really unless you are counting out Brazil. But do again just please go ahead and ban weapon and see that banning has zero effects on the actual gun violence.

I said track, that was a one time study. You need more precise data and a much larger sample size to make a proper assessment.
Next time you feel like getting smarmy try reading what I write. It's pretty to the point.
In 1996, 1997, and 1998, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) conducted large-scale surveys asking about defensive gun use (DGU) in four to six states. Analysis of the raw data allows the estimation of the prevalence of DGU for those areas. Estimates based on CDC’s surveys confirm estimates for the same sets of states based on data from the 1993 National Self-Defense Survey

It would be a national blood bath if they tried to take our weapons.
