There is 1 comment on White Men Over 50 Most Likely to Use Gun in Suicide

  1. I am concerned about that “non-sincere concern” about mental health by creating a registry of everyone that owns a gun. I own firearms and I am not suicidal. the mere fact that there were a registry would play right into the hands of gun control enthusiasts that would simply use that to confiscate…”Just in case” anyone felt suicidal. That’s very flimsy as an excuse to take 2nd amendment rights away from law-abiding citizens. Try increasing funding for mental health counseling and you just might cut down self inflicted wounds and more importantly, mass killing for insane reasons or no reasons at all.
