Except that suicide rates aren't really correlated with gun ownership rates. That pretty much pokes holes in the theory.

Does it? I've known half a dozen people or so who've killed themselves. Only one was by gun, and that was a shotgun. One car-in-the-garage, couple OD's, and a couple hangings. All you need to kill yourself is a bed sheet. Always a bad idea to use a theory to promote a political position when the theory is in direct opposition to actual empirical data.
