This was a study about gun violence, not suicide. I am sure you
could find suicide stats if that is what you are interested in.
They gave stat with no real meaning though. A quick glance may have
people thinking more guns = more suicide, but that is not the case.
You keep wanting the study to be something it is not, a study of
suicide.
The stats clearly show that the more guns in a state, the higher the
rate of suicide "by gun." IOW, when guns are readily available, they
are used more frequently for suicide.
The fewer guns, the lower the amount gun violence.
