Interesting article from Harvard Magazine:

Terrifically interesting. I particularly liked the bolded points.

The point about comparative violence statistics is one I've read before. Needs to be repeated as often as possible.

Suicides accounted for about 58 percent of gun fatalities, or 17,000 to 18,000 deaths


Considering the above statistic; I wonder what percentage of the 43,000 vehicle deaths are suicides ..
