Gun violence in the United States results in tens of thousands of deaths and injuries annually. In 2013, there were 73,505 nonfatal firearm injuries (23.2 injuries per 100,000 persons), and 33,636 deaths due to "injury by firearms" (10.6 deaths per 100,000 persons).

Theres no evidence linking suicide rate to firearm ownership.

If suicide is the problem, why not focus more on mental health, and perhaps the state of society that leads people to wanting to kill themselves.

Suicides rates is definitely an issue, think it’ll have bipartisan support?

No idea. But it is something that should be looked into. I don't see why anyone would be opposed to suicide prevention.
