Suicide Prevention

Thanks to Sebastian for pointing me to this proposed study, which expects to find an increase in suicides in D.C. as guns finally become available to the law-abiding.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, and suggest that the suicide rate in D.C. should drop, post-Heller, assuming that D.C.s newly liberalized gun laws actually result in guns getting into homes legally.

Before, all you had to look forward to was the kick at the door and an ugly death at the hands of some critter. After, there's hope of survival: you can now shoot back.
