Howard's gun buyback slashed firearm suicides

Good to see, uh?

“Australian researchers have found there has been nearly an 80 per cent drop in firearm suicides since former prime minister John Howard's gun buyback was introduced in 1997.

The figures equate to around 200 lives each year.”


As soon as I saw this headline, the question shot-up in me: "What's this say about the number of people, male adults I assume, there must have been before the gun buy-back, and since, who are living such depressed lives that makes suicide so luring?"

Without dissecting the stats - not my specialty - there seem to be, lurking behind the report, indications that a large number of, men, are at the end-of-their-tether, or, ready to go beyond the tether of bodily life? Obviously, we must ask the same for women AND children? But, as per the report, it seems the number is criminally large, more so if we include female suicides, nationwide?

Once more, to my sceptical self, this would send signals to all of us, that something....., is not right with the Australian culture, way of life?

To decrease the number of murders etc, cannot be canned, but perhaps the ridiculous laws (LAWS?) forcing us to endure the misery, whether personal depression and lack of education to deal adequately with the stuff of mind, or political or cult oppression from above, perhaps there's something wrong when a government 1stly, fails so badly to prevent the economic causes for so many suicides, and 2ndly that some vague medico-sponsored LAW (LAW?) stops those who are stuck and cannot, with a clear head, find an “out”? Suicide should not be a crime, or whatever offense it's called?

But most, we'd find, of potential and successful suicide victims, are in fact murdered by a system which so unethically fails them, by not providing the community and nation with policies and laws which ensure the economic foundations are Correct, and Scientific, Equitable AND therefore, JUST!

The same can be said about the number of people who drink themselves into oblivion, day-by-day. OR who find life too hard to get off the addictive drugs, habits, consumption items, real estate speculation, which sooner or later, consume them!

AND..., the Great Mutha Eartha!

Perhaps leaving the guns within the community might have enabled quick relief for the end-of-tether Men, from a society, culture, economy and thus government which have gone right off the deep end from sanity and Balanced management of each and every human life?

Not aiming my arrows at persons, but at systems and the halls which uphold the evil laws. Evil laws that drive so many to jump, before their time, off the twig.

Besides, most of us know that Howard and coven bought back the guns to disarm a nation that was, and is drawing closer to a violent uprising against the cult-political classes?
