    Sure, because guns are made for killing.

    All while being constitutionally recognized and protected for legal ownership and legal use.

    Absence of firearms makes suicide much more unlikely to succeed.

    No! Most people with Severe Mental Disability have no choice. Thank G-d I have no severe condition.

    How would you take firearms away from criminals?

    Most military firearms are designed to wound.

    In fact, criminals can easily obtain every kind of firearm in Canada and Scandinavia.

    False.
    If someone is determined to exit, they are many more ways to do it, just as effective.

    And guns will always be easier to obtain than illegal drugs.

    Eliminating my constitutional rights isn't going to help them and is just going to allow for the crestion of tyranny in America.

    The fact that so many want to stomp and **** on our rights are proof that we need them. Now more than ever.

    Individual liberty including the right to keep and bear arms. Is more important, even than the continued existence of America as a nation.

    Guns are responsible? This is a dem talking point. The perp is never guilty, the gun is.

    Life is inherently competitive and unfair, exactly the way it is supposed to be.

    There is equality under the law, but not equality of ability and sticktoitiveness.

    People who keep putting one foot in front of the other and keep up the struggle to make ends meet and keep a roof over their head and bread on the table for their family are inherently better than those who commit suicide.

    Otherwise it would be access to razor blades, pills, etc. The problem is the depression.

    Maybe their depression is caused by the Nazi mind fiddlers who've convinced them that a girl less feminine is a boy, and a boy less masculine is a girl. Ban the Nazi mind fiddlers who are poisoning the children.

    You can't ban them fiddlers. The weak are going to sucuumb to sundry modalities trying to ruin and slay them, and that is that. Life is unfair.

    Then why does the nation of Japan have a higher annual level of successful suicides than the united states, despite not having firearms?

    Pray tell, exactly how hard should an individual who desires to end their own existence, actually be forced to work at achieving such a goal, before it is determined that they are truly serious in their intentions and should be left to their own devices?

    That brings up a difficult question. Should they be red flagged for firearm purchases?

    Our right to keep and bear arms was specifically protected by the constitution because of that very fact.

    Let's start by disarming the cops and military. They've got a ****-ton of guns. That should save a lot of transgender people.
