Hate to be that guy, but according to the linked paper, 38% of the deaths were teenage suicides. Although the homicides and mass shootings are horrifying and all we hear about, there are massive amounts of teenagers killing themselves. That’s a mental health issue, and even if all guns were banned, there’s still a…
