Untrue.
Studies have determined that when firearms are removed, the suicide rate at first plummets, but then ascends again and briefly rises higher than the initial rate, only then to recede back to where it was prior to the gun removal. Suicides may delay their act until they decide upon a new method to kill themselves, but they are NOT cured by gunlaws. Anyone with common sense will realize the law doesn't treat the psychopath that causes suicide!
IMO, there is good reason to keep suicide separate from other violence. |

"Psychopath" in my last sentence above should read "psychopathy." |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.' The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well-regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State. Our opinion is that any law, State or Federal, is repugnant to the Constitution, and void, which contravenes this right. [Nunn vs. State, 1 Ga. (1 Kel.) 243, at 251 (1846)] |
