Following up Finch's reply, which said: "a large majority of gun deaths are suicides."

Well, to be fair, and we're on course to veer right off topic -- a large majority of gun deaths are suicides.

As a gun owner you’re far more likely to commit suicide than murder.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted.

Because it's double-wrong. Suicides have been already raised. The other side is: drug addiction destroys families as well.

But that’s true with alcohol as well.

Yes. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.
