You don’t get to handwave away statistics when they’re inconvenient and then pull them out when you think they can score you a point. Suicide causes and prevention are areas that are extensively studied.

I don’t know where I did, if you are reffering to the suicide attempt statistic, you missunderstood me, I just didn’t know it exists. Also you kinda do it here by not answering to my point.

It’s a complex problem with many factors but widespread access to guns is a provably one of those factors. The 90% survival rate after a failed attempt comes from the world over.

I agree that it’s a complex problem, that’s why I do think that we need laws, that regulate how people use their guns (like a regulation, that you have to keep your gun locked away), not who uses guns (with exceptions like terrorists and people who threat to commit a crime or suicide, minors, etc.). Maybe the widespread acces of guns has a higher impact on suicide rates, than I think, but it’s far from the most important factor in my experience. Maybe the suicide rates are down a bit if we ban guns, but the mental health of people wouldn’t get better by making them life. I think that physicly preventing people from killing themself isn’t the right approach in the long run.
