A former son in law attempted suicide with OTC medication. When he didn't show up for work the EMTs found him unresponsive and barely breathing. Touch and go for 48 hours but he did recover and has gone on to find a happy life.

Consider that 22 veterans commit suicide EVERY DAY. Is that any way to support the troops?

The means do matter. Guns are a permanent solution to far too many temporary crisies .
