If we get rid of guns because of the suicidal people,
will we get rid of pills next?
After that we can get rid of rope, fire, plastic bags, anything with a sharp edge, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, anything flammable and water; just to be safe.
I think your point is that guns make suicide easy, and I get that; but I think it's a tough spot to defend in terms of gun control. Suicide is easy, people will always find a way to do it.
As I said, I'm against gun control too. But I'm also in favor of facts, and the facts seem to indicate that having more guns around just might allow more people to impulsively kill themselves.
Suicide is often a fairly impulsive thing, and suicidal people can be deterred by even slight inconveniences. That's why things like suicide barriers on bridges work. Guns are a very attractive method of suicide—they're rather instant, painless, easy to use, and so forth. I'm in favor of gun ownership, but suicidal people, deprived of easy methods of suicide, will often reconsider entirely. The moment will pass and they will not kill themselves.
Of course, some people decide to kill themselves and remain very determined about the process. Not all suicides are alike.
