From the article: "Just 218 suicides, or 3.5 percent, occurred in rural communities. "
Sounds to me like not enough of a sample to be meaningful.
Also sounds like some anti-gun person with an agenda went looking to for another reason to bash guns.
Why are mental health problems always blamed for suicides? I had a friend with ALS who committed suicide. He had zero depression or mental health issues, but he wasn't going to spend the last three months of his life in bed on a respirator. It was a rational and reasonable choice under the circumstances. |

TO REMEMBER |
| To have no proud monarch driving over me with his gilt coaches; nor his host of excise-men and tax-gatherers insulting and robbing me; but to be my own master, my own prince and sovereign, gloriously preserving my national dignity, and pursuing my true happiness; planting my vineyards, and eating their luscious fruits; and sowing my fields, and reaping the golden grain: and seeing millions of brothers all around me, equally free and happy as myself. This, sir, is what I long for. -- General Francis Marion, American War of Independence, Georgetown, SC [Source: 'Marion, The Life of Gen. Francis Marion' by M. L. Weems, Ch.18] |
