Thanks for you help.
Now I have stats showing that the pro gun states have higher suicide, homicide, and violent crime rates.
Now there is no question that loose gun laws contribute to all these problems.
Here are some more 'states' to add to your list. I will epect a post admitting that YOU were wrong to follow:
Suicides per 0,000 people.
Lithuania - 42
Russia -37
Belarus - 35
latvia -34
Estonia -33
Hungary - 32
Slovenia - 31
Ukraine - 29
Kazahkstan - 28.7
Finland - 24.3
Highest Suicide Rates in the World
Here is a link to a more complete list.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_suicide_rate
Rank may very due to year, but I think you can grasp the idea
You will note that even Finland, 10th down on the list, still has a higher rate than any state you listed. Most all of those countries have stricter gun laws than the U.S. Thus your notion that there is correlation between gun control and suicide rates is bullshit.
