Self-defense justification for concealed carry rarely matches actual gun use.
Evidence
Gun-rights advocates use self-defense as the main justification for laws granting individuals the right to carry concealed handguns in public. However, this justification does not fare well when compared with how concealed handguns are actually used. An extensive analysis of concealed-carry shootings found that only 3% were lawful self-defense (Violence Policy Center, 2015). — Albert Bandura, Moral Disengagement, 1207
