SUICIDE AS GUN VIOLENCE?

 LAST WEEK AT A TOWN HALL MEETING BARRY ANNOUNCED THAT ACCORDING TO THE CDC THERE WERE 30,000 GUN DEATHS IN AMERICA.  IF WE CAN LOWER THAT TO 28,000 THEN THERE WOULD BE 2,000 LESS FAMILIES GOING THROUGH THE PAIN OF LOSS.

WHAT OUR HOPLOPHOBIC LEADER FAILED TO MENTION WAS THAT APPROXIMATELY 22,000 OF THOSE DEATHS WERE SUICIDES.  AND, GET THIS.  THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF SUICIDES WITH GUNS DECLINED WHILE OVERALL SUICIDES WENT UP. 

HOW ABOUT AN APPLES TO APPLES COMPARISON OF THE DATA MR. PRESIDENT?
