Since that number includes "legal intervention" it likely also includes self-defense, etc.
Nevertheless, it's still half the number of suicides.
So, these idiots are less concerned about working to reduce the number of suicides than pesting law-abiding people?
Seems to match their constant "struggle" to allow for indiscriminated abortions, ignoring kids that die in car crashes and so on.
Is it a correct assumption that this was already brought before our "elected officials"?
