    a gun makes it incredibly easy to end someone, including yourself. It takes the killing out of killing and I can promise you that makes a massive difference to the number of both killings and suicides.

      So we ban pain killers too? Cleaning chemicals? Rat poison?

      The gun didnā€™t make you kill yourself. Not getting help killed you. Stop chasing the guns, they arenā€™t the the problem. The problem is that so many people see them as a solution and they need help.
