well, I have tried fries with gravy and it isn't my favourite thing. I like my ketchup...

[Darnell 8,480]

IMO, ya gotta make (or acquire) the right gravy.

For Example, a Brown Gravy mix bought at a store, dry, that you make by adding hot water to it - well - that's just not the right type of gravy .

19,000 people committed suicide in the US and didn't use a gun. So obviously the problem is guns and has nothing to do with mental health.

In Canada, which has very similar suicide rates to the us,The following methods are used. In addition they found the number one cause was--GASP! mental Illness.

44% -hanging

25%-Posing

15%-other

16%-firearms

Of course no one in this forum has ever suggested the availability of guns increases suicide rates..Oh never.

####### is suicide by posing? Are models at risk?

[spookyturtle 9,466]

So what about the other 19,000 suicides? Is that an acceptable number? Or do we continue to ignore the real problem, mental health and use guns for a scapegoat? So look in the mirror and talk about denial.

Having a gun in the house does not cause suicide or contribute to it Once that is proven the whole little study that concludes if you have a gun in the home you are more likely to injure yourself or your family than an intruder falls apart.That can't have the facts inter twined with their beliefs.
