I’m joining

2019-02-25 23:42:23 UTC  

Joking

2019-02-25 23:42:34 UTC  

But yes removing guns would lower suicide rates

2019-02-25 23:42:56 UTC  

I know a lot of people personally who wanted to kill themselves but didn’t since there were no guns in their house

2019-02-25 23:43:10 UTC  

Shooting yourself is the easiest way to go

2019-02-25 23:43:12 UTC  

Well how strict we talking on control, removing or regulating

2019-02-25 23:43:15 UTC  

And the more painless

2019-02-25 23:43:23 UTC  

it really depends on how desperate you are tbh

2019-02-25 23:44:32 UTC  

if you are desperate enough pain wont matter

2019-02-25 23:44:42 UTC  

If you want to you know, abolish the 2nd amendment lmao - yeah sure it would lower. It's a shitty cost to pay but sure it would do at least "something"

2019-02-25 23:45:41 UTC  

Regulating wouldn't change much, even nowadays it's still relatively difficult to get a gun and there's other painless ways. It's not worth regulating for everybody just for the chance some guys will change their minds

2019-02-25 23:46:42 UTC  

Guys who are suicidal aren't bound by the law, regulating guns or even removing them just for suicidal reasons is out of the question - not effective. It'd be more of a chance

2019-02-25 23:47:17 UTC  

But states with the most gun control have lower suicide rates

2019-02-25 23:47:20 UTC  

hmmmmmm

2019-02-25 23:48:04 UTC  

I'll have to see that myself, I can't take your word for it. But what I can tell you is it's definitely not fuckin worth it I'll give you that much

2019-02-25 23:48:34 UTC  

*Firearm suicide rate

2019-02-25 23:48:41 UTC  

Or overall suicide rate

2019-02-25 23:48:45 UTC  

I'll have to look again

2019-02-25 23:51:01 UTC  

California, Illinois, New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts have low suicide rates

2019-02-25 23:51:19 UTC  

And a lot of gun control

2019-02-25 23:52:09 UTC
