NYT on Rural Suicide

The NYTimes has an article on rural suicides which would be a lot more interesting if it distinguished between guns in the home as a correlation and as a cause.

That people who suicide frequently use guns is hardly surprising: People who are serious generally choose reliable methods. The others don't.

The article also talks about a "culture of suicide," which makes a lot more sense.
