    • Sure, as guns were readily available. But what is the number of suicides, where method is removed?ETM
    • I'll bet far less people jumped and drowned to death in landlocked areas. Not pro-gun by any means, but the graph goes to some degree of a confirmation bias.ETM
    • ^ You're not wrong. Engineered statistics. Good drowning analogy. But I feel having a gun to hand when feeling low definitely would increase the chances lotsHayzilla
    • Total number for 2019 was around 48,000. I don't really see showing a statistic for gun deaths as any sort of confirmation bias.BuddhaHat
    • There would be the potential for confirmation bias were you to infer something from the statistic.BuddhaHat
    • Also that 48,000ish figure was US suicides for 2019 from CDC website.BuddhaHat
    • I bet gun companies wish they could sell more to depressed people.PhanLo
