His position was that Moore misused a statistic regarding the use of firearms in the home while the articles you presented relate to research conducted on all instances of defensive gun uses.

Is this the level of research and logic you employ when determining whether one is deliberately falsifying information or have you already reached a conclusion and are merely finding information that solidifies your opinion despite its relevance?
No.

As I stated, statistics regarding the over all use of hand guns in defensive situations was as close as I could come to addressing your questions with a quick google search.

And as I also stated, it supports the overall supposition that anti-gun pundits (such as Michael Moore) under report or don't report at all the such instances.

As to my conclusion regarding Michael Moore's veracity in reporting, that has been covered and documented extensively on these boards.
