Interesting fact: three out of five gunshot-deaths in America are suicides.
So, in other words, gun-owners are more likely to shoot themselves than they are to shoot other people.
But, uh, I'm not exactly saying you shouldn't own guns because of that... I just think it's interesting...

You want OP to kill himself, dont you?
-
I don't want anyone to kill themselves...

I also believe that study showed that suicide through gun violence was higher in white Americans where black Americans were more likely to die by out right violence from guns.

Never, ever ever going to be so selfish as to kill myself. I'd prefer to not go to Hell.

I'm certainly not saying that you would, but suicide isn't exactly a rational decision. Depression is an illness, remember. People who kill themselves genuinely believe that the world will be better off without them, and it's usually a spur-of-the-moment decision, which is why having a gun handy can end... badly.

In a sense, yeah it can. Example; some people leave them out for their kids to find and mess with. That can end bad big time!!!

That's not quite what I meant.

I know. That is just what I am saying.
