Sorry, I didn't realize I had to spell this out for you.

Now repeat after me:

Fewer guns, fewer suicides.

In Massachusetts, we have the toughest gun laws in the country. We

also

have the lowest gun death rate (by a large margin) in the country.

We

also have one of the lowest suicide rates in the country, about 60%

of

the national average.

You could change your mind with a gun and NOT pull the trigger.
Anyways, they'll just try again.

Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

There ya go, you made my point.
With cars, pills you do get a chance to call for help.

You can call for help after you die from car exhaust? I didn't

know


that.

Scotty


Nope, but you sure as hell can before the gas gets you.

Scooter, back when, I attended a whole bunch of suicides, in

plenty

of


them there were signs that the person had changed their mind and
unsuccessfully tried to call for help.
You know, things like, the phone knocked over, signs that they'd

tried


to crawl to the door, etc, and many others where they had managed

to

call, but help arrived too late.

Never seen that in a gunshot suicide.

So you're agreeing with me that gun owners are more likely to kill their
own family members.

Jeff... why in the world would you propose to cause a line up at the
check-out counter? You said fewer suicides... not murders. Disarming the
civilian population is no remedy for crime. I speak from experience here in
Canada, it's ridiculously expensive, time consuming and has effectively
increased the smuggling profits. Only the criminals & cops have weapons now.
The cops are only a follow up after the incident and the criminals are more
brazen due to the gun control legislation.

Do not go down the road of gun control..... it's merely another step in the
direction to strip you of your rights.
