This is true, but what I'm arguing is that if someone wants to take their own life they will do it regardless the method, which is why we need better public awareness of suicide and it's symptoms, gun control will not solve the problem of criminal activity or self-inflicted harm.
1) I agree that we need better public awareness of suicide and it's symptoms
2) Gun control will not solve the problem of criminal activity or, especially self-inflicted harm.
3) If someone wants to take their own life, they will be more successful if they use a gun. Stats show this. Lethality of guns demonstrate this. It is far easier to revive someone from an overdose, than from a several inch hole in their brain.
