We just don't appreciate being made criminals because the mental health care in this country is a joke and so many people go untreated for what ails them until they snap and off themselves or go on a rampage.
The lumping in of suicides with actual "gun violence" is one of the most underhanded and disingenuous arguments I have ever seen. It also shows you how willing they are to lie to get what they want.
Quote:Up to 66% of reported 'gun violence' incidents are self inflicted, but they get lumped in right next to 'psycho white supremacists shoots up nightclub'. It creates a fear of a tool instead of a fear of untreated mental health.
Or gang member pulls drive by, which happens far more often. Conflating either with a suicide by gun is grotesque.
