This is flatly untrue. Studies show clearly that you can reduce overall suicide rates by restricting gun access, and people do not simply switch to other methods.

This is flatly untrue. Studies do not show that. There are other variables at play than whether people who commit suicides have firearms, and those variables are *not* independent. Go learn some probability and statistics.

In particular, you cannot analyze the effect of a change in state law by using the population of another state that did not make that change as a control group. What has always been found to control suicide rates is social circumstances, not the availability of "easy" means.
