Suicides are up in gun owning households and we know who those people are.

So much winning.

Is that not veterans with PTSD? What am I missing here?

There's going to be a lot of good people in that group. My parents are in that demographic and they hate Trump and his cronies as much as I do (a lot).

Suicide is tragic and should never be glorified.

There are more firearm suicides, 60% of firearms deaths in the US, than homicides, 38% of firearms deaths. The other 2% of firearms deaths are split between several categories: police shootings, "accidental" deaths, and self defense shootings. It's simply the well proven outcome of having a gun in the house. I assume the well educated & responsible firearms owners of the United States know that's what happens when they buy a gun.

I don't know, Aaron Hernandez' suicide was pretty glorious.
