So what you're saying is that, fundamentally, it's not really the gun. Got it.
Japan was one example, the statistical correlation generally applies to all countries regardless of availability of guns. I'll provide a link tonight.
And the suicide reduction reason is still weak. You can't dilute the rights of citizens because some people want to commit suicide. The public health argument is a reach. We already have restrictions for clinically diagnosed depressed people.
