Right, other countries with higher rates have fewer guns. My point entirely.

Other countries with fewer guns have lower rates as well. Its a nonsensical argument.

Not sure why you're confused.

Claim: "More guns means more suicides"

Fact A: "Countries with far fewer guns have more suicides"

Fact B: "Other countries with fewer guns have less suicides"

Fact A disproves the Claim.

Fact B does not, at most it shows guns aren't a factor either way. Is that what you're claiming? Guns have no impact on suicides?

All we can know is it's not the only factor.
