I wish the suicide rate was factored more into conversations about taking guns away due to "violent crime".

Absolutely - the protective aspect of guns against "violent crime" is far outweighed by the risk of someone shooting themselves.

Gun owners don't need more guns, they need therapy!

(This post is hilarious since gun owners frequently call shooting "therapy". Many gun owners would unironically say/type this exact same comment. Congrats, you played yourself.)

I personally think therapy is great and will help gun owners protect themselves from the greatest threat they face, which is their mental health!

"I personally think therapy (shooting targets) is great and will help gun owners protect themselves from the greatest threat they face, which is their mental health (greatest threat all Americans face)!"

Imagine posting exactly what a pro-gun target shooter would post and think it's snark. Congrats, you just played yourself again. Thanks for agreeing.
