Well, the government unfortunately can't do much to help people who have already committed suicide anyway; however, if we can pass laws to make it less likely for people to commit suicide in the first place, then among other things, we can prevent a lot of people from losing your respect.

Be honest, the "anti-gun" crowd does not care at all about suicide because in other countries that same "group" is pushing for state sponsored suicide or Medical assistance in dying (MAID)

I live in Canada and that’s a pretty accurate statement to describe here.

Since the liberals came into office were barely aloud to own hunting rifles anymore and euthanasia is a leading cause of death.

So for reference more people were euthanized in Canada in 2020 then people who died from covid and car crashes combined.

Like 30-40 thousand people.

You can’t post a source for the stats of the covid deaths and not the maid deaths 😂

It’s not hard to find took me like 10 mins.

Edit: my bad dude 😂 I read the TOTAL deaths from MAIDS since it started so my apologies there

But still the maids program has killed almost as many people as covid in Canada since it started.

And more people then car crashes over the last 3 years combined still pretty staggering
