Man! You people know a lot of suicide victims!
Unfortunately yes. Some do know people who have committed suicide. Those I have known who have done so can be counted on one hand, however, while I have known many hundreds, thousands?, of people over my ever increasingly long life. In my opinion, somebody who is determined to commit suicide will find a way to do it. Others may make a half hearted attempt more as a scream for help than out of a determination to end it all. I have no problem with keeping easy access to guns out of the hands of those with suicidal thoughts. That is a sane and rational decision.
But I also think it is also rational to know that the huge majority of people are in no danger from and are quite okay with the presence of guns.
