But a main driver is the growing availability of guns
And there it is.
Clearly written by someone with an agenda. There are books on this topic, the trend has been the same for 35 years. Pain killers and the disintegration of the lower middle class lifestyle are the main culprits. Suicide by gun is not nearly as prevalent as suicide by drugs and alcohol these days.

My son’s wife’s stepdad, who was a retired well respected cop, decided for some reason he had had enough I guess. He poured his coffee, got his paper and went to the garage where he closed the door and cranked the lawnmower.
He had everything in order and a letter explaining it all and who got what and so on.
Other than the mower noise I guess that was a peaceful way to go. Depression must be one hell of a bad thing and I pray I never experience it.
Guns aren’t the problem. Just a solution for some folks.
